                 Key: DS-1020
                 URL: https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-1020
             Project: DSpace
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Discovery
    Affects Versions: 1.7.2

Here are a few suggestions to improve the Discovery filter dialog

Most important one: 
Currently, the field name and the metadata of active filters are displayed the 
same way. It would be better if there is a clear difference and if the focus is 
on the metadata itself. A simple improvement would have the metadata first, and 
the field in regular text (non bold) in brackets behind it.

So in the attached screenshot, Author: Aguera y Arcas, Blaise would become 
Aguera y Arcas, Blaise (Author)

Other improvements:
- put the add filter dialog above the activated filters
- Instead of the select boxes and the update filter button, just have an X next 
to an activated field that removes it (like the JIRA or Google+ interface).
