Re: [Cosmo] UI Review of Dashboard and Detail View on qacosmo

Matthew and I did a UI review of what's currently available on  
qacosmo. Here are the notes and the bugs I've logged. I have a bunch  
of tasks to get him updated icons and whatnot.

Matthew, I realized there were 2 issues I forgot to mention. They are:

+ Enter key doesn't work for submitting Go-to-date and Create new note.

> + 'Updated by' column should be to the left of 'Title' to match  
> Chandler

I also realized that with this:
> + 'Sentence case' for 'Updated by' and 'Starts on'.
Logged as: https://bugzilla.osafoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9756

I can't just update the properties file I was editing because it  
doesn't mention the 'Updated by' column :o) So I logged a bug instead.

Thx! Lemme know if I'm missing anything.

- We are going to keep the Rollover effect and simply use the  
Selected-Active state for both the Selected *and* the Rollover states.
- Post-preview, we would like to have 6 states for Selected-State  
buttons: https://bugzilla.osafoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9737

- Previous and Next buttons for pagination and calendar week nav:  
https://bugzilla.osafoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9739
- Using custom icons for 'Go-to date' and 'Create new item'  will be  
extra work to do. So unlikely to happen for Preview.

- Swap out Collection Details / Show link icons for new 'grey'  
Collection Details icon: https://bugzilla.osafoundation.org/ 
show_bug.cgi?id=9738
- Make dialog buttons the default size: https:// 
bugzilla.osafoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9740

- Mimi to produce background gradient for smaller size buttons.

Detail view will be active even if nothing is selected in the summary  
pane. Provides users with a way to create a new item: https://
