Navigate to linked table via cell context menu

[seancolsen]

Current behavior

• We have this context menu on all cells.

  

Desired behavior

• When opened via a foreign key cell (as I've done in the above screenshot)...

  • (A) The "Go To Linked Record" functions the same, but is instead labeled as:

    Open Patricia Anderson

    The icon is iconRecord

  • (B) The menu contains an additional entry labeled like this:

    Open Patrons Table

    The icon is iconTable

• The (B) menu entry is also present when the context menu is opened via a foreign key column's header cell.

@kgodey Are these UX changes okay with you? If so, we can un-draft this ticket and mark it as "help wanted" and "good first issue".

[kgodey]

Yes, sounds good @seancolsen

Heads up, Is this up for grabs @seancolsen ?

[kgodey]

Yes, it is. Assigned to you @himanshuc3

Hey, a quick question @kgodey Given table above has foreign key containing names as values which might not be unique. So two records may have "John" as name and we still contain it's value in foreign key. I understand it is for better accessibility but how do we choose the column that may be suitable to substitute id with?

@himanshuc3 you can set the Record Summary in the table inspector to something unique – you can include multiple columns if needed.
