Rework extension and profile checkboxes #85

Description

@rmouritzen-splunk

Users are finding the extension and profile checkbox in the current UI to be confusing.

  • The behavior of the profile checkboxes changes on different pages:
    • On listing pages (Categories, Classes, Objects) it filters down to items that refer to the profile
    • On detail pages (Object and Class pages) it adds the attributes defined by the profile
  • Checking a profile on one page, for example Categories, then to another, for example Objects, can unexpected lead to the second page being empty.
  • The filtering dropdown on the Dictionary, object, and class detail pages are conceptually the same, though with a different UX -- perhaps unnecessarily different UX.
  • The left gutter where these checkboxes are placed disappears when the browser window is too narrow, and it missing on mobile (specifically on the iPhone). Worse, when the gutter is missing, the functionality is unavailable.

Related issue: #44.

Solution(s) TBD.
