task table

DESCRIPTION:

I believe the testcase mentiones that there should be help icons to describe each column of the tables tasks, and packages and some in recipes. I no longer see this icons.


BUILD: 2.2_M2 : 36feb38045b7a2af86ece147fec54b0db3bf491f

ENVIRONMENT: Debian 4.3.0-0.bpo.1-amd64

STEPS TO REPRODUCE: 
1. Start with a default Yocto project (qemux86), start the Toaster, and create a builds.

2. We'll provide help information for those elements of the interface that need it (for example, we'll need to explain the meaning of table columns). We indicate the availability of help information with a "help" icon next to the interface element.
In Toaster, select the build. The help information "This is the build target(s): one or more recipes or image recipes" occurs when you hover in the help icon of the target column heading.

3. Verify other help information in toaster, such as tasks, recipes, packages.


EXPECTED OUTCOME: 
I believe the task and packages table columns had help icons. Can this be due to the fact that the tables are now done with the tables.py script?

We agreed to remove those when migrating the tables to toasterTables. Most of them were self explanatory anyway. 

A review of the help information across the web interface is long overdue: one of those things that keeps on moving to the bottom of my pile :/
