Description

The Help icon in Web > Info module in function menu does not provide relevant help to user.
The help is not connected to the current task and the relevant help/csh icons are not located as expected.

Central message in *all Web > Info sub functions is:

"The idea of the Web>Info module is to be a host module for backend applications that wish to present information / analysis of pages or branches of the page tree. This could be website statistics, caching status information etc."

This information could be removed completely.

For each sub function there is a user action centered help availiable that should replace the function menu bar help icon.

We had this discussion for 4.4 and 4.5 in the Core / Usability
Team. Sadly it seems to be not documented anywhere. Hmm..

You suggestion sounds good .. but I got to say that I still don't
get it 100% is the red "X" mean as ".. there should the icon be
placed" or is it a ".. let's remove that" Icon? :)

I would like to remove the Web > Info Help Icon completely (with the red X).
The icon explaining the context (currently below docheader) could replace the first icon.
