[Design] [Cosmo][DF][Sum] Using the Account Browser to restore a lost Chandler repo

[Priscilla Chung]

We will be reviewing the 0.7 features filed in bugzilla this coming  
Thursday after the Cosmo meeting. Mostly we're taking a look at the  
font end UI work for dashboard, but we will also include the dogfood  
feedback currently filed in bugzilla to see what additional features  
need to be added/fixed, etc.

My question is understanding what exactly is the 'minimal' amount of  
work you're suggesting for the account browser (are we still  
referring to this page as 'home collection' or are we referring to a  
different page? I'd like to keep the terms consistent please)?

When you say 'make the 'home collection' (account browser) page look  
different', is it as simple as changing the background color of the  
page OR are we talking about changing both the information presented  
and the features offered to an end user?

In my opinion, addressing the problems highlighted in Mimi's feedback  
requires much more then changing the background color of the page.  
Right now improving the account browser experience is a lower  
priority for preview.

Our first priority is to improve the UI on Chandler Hub/Desktop so  
that Mimi and Alex should never have to go into the account browser  
to recover a lost collection.
