[Evergreen-general] LP 1948991: Administration Options - Mismatch with headers

[Jennifer Pringle]

I actually think we should use the names from the menus rather than the current headings on the pages.  It sounds like it will be more work but, at least for us, those are the names library staff know the interfaces by and in most cases the names the interfaces have had for years. Changing them to match the headings will also change the order of the menu and in come cases split up interfaces that are currently nicely grouped together.     (and will add the word Configuration to almost every menu item on the Server Admin menu)

For example:

Circulation Duration Rules -> Circulation Duration Rule Configuration
Circulation Limit Groups -> Circulation Limit Group Configuration
Circulation Matchpoint Weights -> Circ Matrix Weights Configuration
Circulation Max Fine Rules -> Max Fine Rule Configuration
Circulation Modifiers -> Circulation Modifier Configuration
Circulation Recurring Fine Rules -> Recurring Fine Rule Configuration

+1 on fewer changes to make so I change my vote to the links

I'd vote for changing the links, as at least some of the UI titles are
coming from the IDL, which means they may also get re-used with
reporting. That also makes for fewer files to touch, overall. We
shouldn't forget that we can also completely relabel things if the
programmer-ese is too prominent.
