Fix some broken help_text bubbles (they are truncated or not displayed if they contain " double quotation marks). Add notice text (sort of ugly at the moment, Dmitri? :) explaining the "Public name" and "Link ID" fields in great detail. This patch is in preparation for making "Link ID" immutable for Users in a subsequent patch. Patch by: Todd Larsen
