People Dir Admin UI Bug

[Nat Katin-Borland]

In the People admin UI. When I hit “edit,” I am now allowed access to the page, but when I hit “cancel” it doesn’t bring me back to the same page—it moves me down one layer. In order to return to the page where I was before I have to hit the “Up” link. It would be good if “cancel” returned you to the same page.

The "cancel" button does the same thing currently whether you hit having
come from the "edit" link of the container or from the "Edit" action of
the object being edited: it returns to the "admin.html" of the object
being edited.

Fixing this would add some complication to the admin UI, which is
currently deliberately very simple. I would be tempted to just remove
the "edit" link of the container, requiring the user to click through
to the "admin" link first, and then select the "Edit" action.

OK, I just wanted to clarify, but if re-working it would add a lot of
work, it's a huge deal.

Thanks,
Nat
