Clarify what is displayed publicly in the inspect form #5051

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

The inspect form contains the following labels:

Out of these, the assignment, priority and extra details are not displayed publicly. This has not been obvious to new users in our experience.

The public update label contains the word “public” which perhaps could give the impression that the other things are not public.

By the way, if we change the labels perhaps we should somehow remove the colons after “Assign” and “Public update” while we're at it so the labels looks a bit more consistent.

Describe the solution you'd like

I think a clarification of what pieces of information is displayed publicly in the inspect form would be helpful.

Describe alternatives you've considered

We received some questions about “Extra details” in particular, so we added “ (interna)” (“interna” is Swedish for “internal”) at the end of that label. This works for us but we wouldn't mind a different solution.

Additional context
