Comment (by Antoliny):
Replying to [comment:19 c-stange]:
> I think the current UI design creates a potential source of confusion by
placing a blue underscored "-" link directly adjacent to a green "+"
button under "My Actions".
> Users might naturally assume that the "-" performs the opposite
operation of the "+", leading to incorrect expectations about the link's
actual function.

> Maybe you could use an underscore character (_) as an alternative to the
hyphen (-) notation. This approach eliminates the requirement for
translations while preventing potential user misconceptions regarding the
minus symbol's intended functionality.
I also have doubts about whether the "-" symbol is appropriate for
representing empty values.
This was mentioned in my PR as well, and there was feedback suggesting
that "-" may not be suitable for conveying blank values when using a
screen reader.
However, I think this issue should be handled separately from this ticket,
and it probably requires a deeper discussion.
I’ll consider creating a discussion on this topic later.
Thank you for sharing your valuable thoughts!
