Bug Description
When you generate a listing of bugs, the navigation links and text provided give a confusing impression.
If you run a listing of bugs, you get back text that reads like:
displaying matching bugs 1 to 20 of 185
This, combined with the fact that the bug list below shows numbered bugs, produces a pretty confusing image to the end user. I have a couple of suggestions.
a) The paging mechanism and the count and position of bugs in the listing are likely to be a bit related; I wonder if placing them closer together and using something like
Currently displaying 20 bugs (out of 185 total bugs) << < Page 8 > >>
(( Change number of bugs displayed ))
would improve things somewhat. Perhaps mpt has a better idea.
b) Just changing the text, perhaps omitting the bug position numbers (21 to 40, etc) could improve things somewhat.
