[META] Taxonomy admin usability Improvements

Posted by xjm

There are a number of existing issues on ways to improve the D8 taxonomy UI/UX, many of which are related, overlapping, or contradictory. Here's a list:

• 📌 Merge "list terms" page into "edit vocabulary" page Postponed
• #719424: Usability: on taxonomy vocabulary page, document new way of applying to content types →
• #113344: Taxonomy term manager view →
• #889378: Create taxonomy fields from the taxonomy administration page →
• ✨ Improve user experience of the taxonomy/term/X/edit page Needs work
• #1016942: Allow taxonomy/term pages to list multiple entity types →
• Box of 'relation' terms on add from is too short to be usable - needs issue?

Term properties and fields

• #569434: Remove taxonomy term description field; provide description field for forum taxonomy →
• #1074640: Display term descriptions on vocabulary page →

Vocabulary properties

• #1341720: Add per-vocabulary settings for listing pages →

...Okay, wow, that was more than I thought.

I think we should probably get some general direction on this: decide which of the above should be won't fix, which can have a shared solution, etc.
