Comment 14 for bug 137448

What is weird about the current situation is that clicking on two of the text of two of the fields, "status" and "importance, lets you edit the bug and while the other two fields take you to an entirely different page. On top of that, for "affects" and "assigned to" the drop down arrow is separate from the link whereas it's not for "status" and "importance" (since they would currently be going to the same place I'm guessing).

My thoughts would be to have only one drop down arrow on the far left. Right now we have 4 drop-downs that all do the same thing. A person expects that a different drop-down will do a different thing. After that I'd suggest linking the "Status" and "Importance" fields to help.lp.net pages describing them (which is an added documentation benefit) . For the non-JavaScript the drop-down arrow could be replaced with a link to +editstatus I would think. How does that sound?
