I agree we should do something about that "Done" button at least,
because at present it doesn't do anything, and that's misleading. When I
see  a "Done" button I naturally assume that I need to click on it in
order to save the changes I've been making; and moreover, that the
changes I've made so far will be reverted if I don't click "Done".
Neither of those is true in Mahara currently.

I'm not sure that I like the idea of adding buttons labelled "Display
page" and "Other pages", when they would duplicate existing links at the
top of the page.

Title:
  Where to direct users when they are done editing a pag?

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Normally, when I am in the process of editing or when I am finished
  editing a page, I wand to see what it looks like without the editing
  tools being in the way. I seem to have two choices: Clicking 'Display
  page' in the  in-page-tab will do what I want. Clicking 'Done' at
  bottom of page brings me back to list of pages and I have to find the
  page again and click it. This is why I tend to ignore this button
  completely. I noticed that new users have trouble remembering the
  location of the 'Display page' button.

  Idea: Duplicate 'Display page' and place at bottom of page next to
  'Done'. Rename 'Done' button to 'Other pages' or something similar. I
  could then choose if I wanted to see the page or go and edit other
  pages.
