Problem/Motivation
On some admin pages, the page title changes when users select a different tab, and on others it stays the same. Some of these titles are not very clear such as "Used in Views" on admin/reports/fields/views-fields
On a number of pages, the page title changes to a very generic page title such as "Settings" (e.g. /admin/reports/updates/settings
or "Edit" (e.g. admin/structure/block/block-content/types
),
In this case, the user has little way of knowing where they are.
Fieldable entities all have a tab to manage fields, form display and display: in this case the when users select a tab, the page has a generic page title such "Manage fields", and the only indication for which entity that is, is in the bread crumb.
For the menus this has been solved by adding the Menu name into the page type.
Proposed resolution
First we would need to see what the different ways are in which page and tab titles change and relate to each other, and then decide what the most usable way is, before deciding on a standard.
We also need to identify pages that have the same title or bad titles such as Settings or Edidet
Then we can make separate issues to consistently change them in the most usable way.
Remaining tasks
User interface changes
API changes
