Operation Dashboard: Add info/help button to each widget

It would be great to have a little info / help button on each widget. This would be configured in the settings of each widget and allow for additional information to be provided to the user about the widget.

A Help Widget/Link-to-information for the Map Application in general would be really useful as many users are not very map savvy which is often why we are sharing bite size data, information and small widgets with them.

This is something we could consider as part of a future release. In the meantime, please note that dashboard elements have (optional) title and description areas that can be used to provide info/help). If more in depth explanations are needed, these areas support HTML, and an <a> tag can be included to link to a separate document.
