"Schedule a build" icon for multibranch projects only does a re-index (misleading icon and tooltip)

      A trap for new users of multibranch project types is that when they are looking at a view, they may see the "schedule a build" icon. It has a tooltip that says "Schedule a build for <job name>" - which actually re-indexes the branches. Builds are not guaranteed to result, which may confuse some new users.

      At least correcting the tooltip would be nice.

          michaelneale is Blue Ocean relying on the translation from core to display details of multibranch jobs or has it some hacks that could be unwound if the core translation could be relied upon

          stephenconnolly I believe it has its own localizatin files. It was viewed as unwise to reuse the same ones as core for this reason - ie the context could change (I wouldn't call it a hack though, it is by design). So I don't think this would have an impact. Probably.
