Thanks Vincent.

I just want to quote Marius about the fact it's a pain to click on some
menus to see the state of the watchlist:

Watching a page is not like the rest of the actions. It has a **state**.
> The other actions (edit, add, administer, copy, rename, delete, export,
> share etc.) don't have a state. It's the difference between a toggle button
> and a standard button. The toggle button needs to show you the current
> state. The user needs to know if the current page is being watched. At
> first you scan the page for visual clues. There's none. You eventually
> click on the More Actions menu and see the "Watch..." entry. [...]

Note: the jira issue is http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-12485.
