Joshua brainstorming from his play and trello ... will revisit once we feel all major other edits are in. Obviously, I assume we might get 1-2 of these, but I think this is what I found in the lists that we have that are still relevant (maybe).

• Import resource items in a manner similar to adding screenshots so that folks don't need to know how to open an app package? (not, still support urls as an alternative)
• General optimization on chromebook? (opening resources and linking them was still a bit slow)
• Handle links from two properties to each other better (make that arrow visible)
• double-click an entity / outcome / mechanism to go directly to editing (rather than click to select and then clicking the edit button)
• Make left nav resizable? On complex models it isn't feeling super readable / useful but not sure how to help with that
• Add a button / link to install chrome plugin?
• Make the "why" field in the resource links more visible / somehow do more? (it feels too easy to ignore right now)
• Put unread comment indicator in model list
• Handle clicking on a link to evidence that is now hidden better (maybe an alert to ask the teacher)
• Tweak where new entities / objects appear as they can now be hard to find at times.
• Move resource types and matching icons (report, sim, etc.) to an easily edited template file. Ideally even have an admin interface to add.
