Description

There is a wrong tooltip in list-module, on hovering the button for creating a new record on not sortable records.
The tooltip is: "Create new record after this record"
But sorting is not available for this kind of records (e.g. backend users).

So there are 2 possible solutions:

1) The button is meaningless, because all buttons have the same action like the top-button. So at best it should be removed. A temporary solution could be to rename the tooltip to "New record".

2) Otherwise, the button should copy the options from the source-record. From my point of view, it doesn't do that at the moment. E.g. for the user records, it works only for one setting named "Mount from groups".

Or maybe the button "create new record after this record" could be removed from records that are not sortable (e.g. for Language records and System News records it is already absent )

Riccardo: this button is also used to make new records based on others, by checking $GLOBALS['TCA'][$table]['ctrl']['useColumnsForDefaultValues']@

I will push a patch
