2012 Little Things: Dialog Launchers

A very subtle change yet one more crossed off a list of places we know of that can benefit from this type of UI:

In the type properties of views you can specify tags.  In previous releases you would see a list of tag types but if you wanted to make a new type you would have to exit the type dialog and go to the Manage tab to create a new tag type there.  Not convenient.  in 2012 you can jump to the Tag Type dialog directly from the View Type dialog.

Great stuff - I have wanted this shortcut for ages. I don't remember seeing it in any "new features" release notes.

This might have slipped in during a 2011 subscription update.  Sometimes I know we think these are more just bug fixes rather than a feature but Ill work to ensure they make release notes.
