In content creation:
# Required field indication doesn't obviously indicate its meaning.
# "Submit page" isn't the best title, "Create page" or "Create new page"
might be better options.
These two have been noted in quite a few usability reviews (including
the one I wrote up). The first one is such a trivial change. How many
'experts' saying 'this could be improved' does it take until a patch
gets committed.
