Suggestion: Add link to keywords documentation to workflow panel

Description

The keywords are not all intuitive. It would be great if this panel linked to the documentation page so folks can discover it and know how to use them in a consistent and effective way.

A link could be added somewhere around the dropdown to the documentation: Workflow Keywords: [ - Add - ].

  • Component changed from General to Trac

Just noting: There's some inline documentation on this already, but it's only on hover on applied keywords, which doesn't help with the process of selecting the keywords to apply.

Adding a link here makes sense to me though.
