Description Christian Giordano 2012-05-30 10:18:50 UTC 
This is only discoverable on pointer hover. The lack of hint without pointer movement not only is an issue with pointer input but even more so with touch input.

Please always provide exact steps (click by click) how to reproduce and which exact widget you refer to. Current report is rather vague.
Comment 2 Christian Giordano 2012-05-30 11:14:05 UTC 
HI Andre, I am referring to most of the input widgets in the right panel, precisely:

- user thumbnail
- user name
- Account type
- Language
- Password

Some of these were changed in the latest redesign (see Bug 767065).

Now it is a traditional entry.

Linked buttons instead.

> - Language
> - Password

These last two seem to be easy to discover. Thoughts?

No reply; assuming the current design is sufficient.
