Topic: Implemented Enhancement: change "view this item" to "item details"

Topic type:

Small change to item detail pages. The text in the "view this item" tab would change.

I received some feedback that the "view this item" text confuses users expecting it to be a download link when viewing video or document detail pages.  I propose that we change the text to "item details" to help clarify that it is meant to show where you are.

Of course, in 1.3, every site will be able to change this text to whatever they want, if they so choose, but it seems valuable to have the default be more intuitive.

Thoughts?

I'll probably sneak this tiny change into 1.2, if no one protests.

Update: this change has been made and will be in the 1.2 release.
