Add status and workflow state to page title block.

I'd vote for only adding this information in the sidebar and the reason is simple: conceptually the left column is for content and the right column is for metadata attributes.

Small change, great UX win.

Traditionally the functionality described in #4 is provided by Workbench proper. In the D8 version, we still have hook_workbench_block() for that purpose.

We shouldn't use comma's. Lets put the information under each other and style them slightly differently. I think published is less important given the state implicates it largely.

Moving to core's issue queue for the content_moderation.module component.

The current moderation state is still not displayed anywhere prominent (e.g. either the title or the sidebar) in the node edit form in the latest 8.3.x-dev.

Started looking at putting together a patch to add the moderation state info into the sidebar in the node edit form.

The first problem I've encountered is that the edit-meta div at the top of the sidebar:

...is actually provided by seven_form_node_form_alter (in the seven theme).

With a different admin theme (e.g. bartik), this meta info is not there:

So that's not an insurmountable problem but it means it's perhaps a little less straightforward for the content moderation module to add the moderation state information in exactly the way illustrated:

@tkoleary - yup, that sounds reasonable.

Filed #2803875: Node form meta information should not come from a theme to work on that.

I think as this has currently not had any patch I'm going to make this "active" rather than "needs work". Was tempted to postpone based on #2803875: Node form meta information should not come from a theme but don't want to mute any potential discussion here.

I wonder if this can be closed now that the moderation widget clearly indicates the current state?

The state is now in the meta block on the right too, but this issue talks about moving it to the title / header.

With @tkoleary not so involved with Drupal now and @Gábor Hojtsy, @jojototh, and @yoroy currently out I am going to postpone this. We can have some more discussion over the next few weeks / months and implement some improvements for 8.5.x if needed.

Discussed this during yesterday’s ux meeting and we think that given the current UI this is a won’t fix:

This of course still only shows the workflow state and not explicitly explains if that workflow state is a published or unpublished one. We didn't think we should want to fix that by explicitly adding that information. If this becomes a problem then people can fix that themselves by using more clear labels for the workflow state:

So we think that what we have now (which is more than what we had when this issue was opened/discussed) is sufficiently clear.

Thanks @yoroy for the update, I agree with #20 which means we can close this issue as "outdated".
