Consolidating feedback based on some discussion in #toppdzn : * Big +1 on having the MIME types in that dropdown be more human readable. * Rollie's been curating a set of GeoSilk icons for styler, which includes icons to indicate vector-based / rasterized output. It'd be nice to use these in the 'Type' column instead of the strings "Vector" and "Raster". We could include tooltip text to clarify for newer users via the "title" attribute. * Let's consolidate the "Workspace" and "Name" columns into Qualified names * Let's add "Title" as a column * Both Qualified name and Title should link to GeoSearch pages whenever those exist. Otherwise, let's leave the text unlinked.
I can turn these into a JIRA if that's best (I see that Mike created GEOS-2836 for the human-readable dropdown text), but wanted to bring these to the list for discussion first.
