Hi

Having 'View' and 'Edit' in user menu item can lead to some problems with translations. For example, I want to change 'View' to 'Account' and 'Edit' to 'Edit Account'. If I will do this now - all View and Edit titles will change, but this is not what I want to.

I think we need to change title for two menus - $items['user/%user/view'] and $items['user/%user/edit']
I've changed View to Account and Edit to Account edit

This wording can be easily changed by you via a specialized module using the hook_menu to reset the title for the items.

-1 from me for this change.

I'm partially agree with you, earnie.
However, I'm thinking from user's point of view. I think user can't just sit and write a module.

I just think that it would be easier for users to have an ability to change user tabs items via translations. For now I can translate this string but this translation will affect all places where View and Edit is defined.

I would vote +1 for this, because generally i think that also 'edit account' should be seperate from 'edit profile' (which would come later)

The translation layer is designed to translate text, not to dynamically alter it.

Damien, all I'm talking about is ability to translate things separately
