[chandler-users] [d/f] Assorted Usage Notes

I like that better, 'Notify'. However, in the user behavior department,
I'm realizing that I have been clicking the Update button in part,
because it appears at all. Changing the label to Notify may not reduce
that initial impulse. Even though I trust the sync to Cosmo/Hub,
clicking the Update button evokes Done or Commit. Is Update/Notify
perhaps really intended for propagating changes to non-Chandler users?
If so, maybe the label or tool-tip could clarify/amplify that intended
purpose. If I'm missing the point, I apologize. Wanted to give you my
candid impulse response without peeking first at the spec.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks, Andre
