The intention is to click the to pull up the other page.

It would probably be clearer to remove the icon and just link the task title normally. I wrote this element a very very long time ago, and the approach is unusual in the modern UI.

Heh, am I the only one who like the current behaviour then? It will trip people up on the change.

Oh, I actually had the history wrong on this one. Here's what actually happened:

• Originally, it was the way this task describes (the link is a link).
• In D1962, the title was made to act like the "Select" button and a small "external" link was added. This was a feature request from @cpiro.
• In D7661, there was a minor CSS update.

I'm pretty ambivalent about the behavior. I personally never click task titles, and also never click the arrow link. I'd tend to pick the original behavior in a vacuum (and evidently did), but I'm also fine with retaining this as is and there seems to be support for it from people who care about it more than I do (you, @cpiro).

If you're happy with it as-is, just WONTFIX this?

Oh, or just land D10774 and we'll fix the control-click but leave the behavior otherwise unchanged.

Yeah I find the control-click an improvement.

If we're going to alter behaviour, I'd rather do that when we revamp the entire object selector.

Yeah, works for me.
