There is no title field when adding a block, so it should be removed from the help text.

Title: No title field when adding blocks, remove from help. » Fix block adding usability
Priority: Minor » Normal

The fact that the title field and all the other block visibility options are missing is IMO a serious usability bug.

The form to add a new block or edit an existing block should be the same. I should not have to go back and edit the block I just added, just to add a title or set visibility options.

@Steven: Agreed. I have a patch at http://drupal.org/node/92630 for including all the options on the Add block page.

This patch should just cover the help text as that other patch might not get in to D5. It still could with some serious attention as I think it's a HUGE usability bug.

This minor patch looks good. +1 and please review the other patch as well!

If the other patch gets committed, this patch becomes useless.
