Edit the title of a link #62

Open aecreations opened 2 years ago

It is currently not possible to edit the title of the links that are added to Read Next. Add the ability to do so. Editing could be done inline within the reading list sidebar.

For version 1.1, editing the title is done via a dialog in the sidebar.

If a reading list sync occurs at the same time a link is being renamed, the changes to the link title may be lost if the sync data replaces the local data. This should be fixed before beta.

This enhancement will be deferred to a future release.

A solution for the concurrent editing problem mentioned in the above comment: if sync is turned on, suspend automatic sync until the rename action is completed. Also, only allow renaming in one reading list sidebar at a time, if there are multiple browser windows with the sidebar open.

If the user tries to change the name of a link while renaming is in progress in another window, show this message in the sidebar message bar:

Renaming a reading list link can only be invoked in one browser window at a time.

There should also be a button to focus the browser window having the reading list sidebar with the rename action in progress. Ideas for the button label:
