Comment (by azaozz):

 Replying to [comment:31 afercia]:
 > - the links "Edit" and "View" in `Edit or view your privacy policy.` are
 not so clear when read out of context.
 > I'd suggest something like: `[link]Edit your privacy policy[/link] or
 [link]view your privacy policy page[/link].`

 Hmm, these links are "inline" in a sentence, they are not meant to be read
 separately. The repetition sounds pretty bad to me. Perhaps we should add
 button-looking-links that will show next to the "Privacy policy page" h2.
 That seems to be used in a lot of other admin screens.

 There is a way and you found it :)

 However I'm not sure we need to support that at all. Once a page is set,
 it can be managed and edited as any other page in WP. Of course it can be
 moved to the trash and deleted too. Thinking to hide the "Select another
 page..." section completely and perhaps add some text telling the user to
 edit and manage the page as any other page. However adding more text means
 the `edit` and `view` links will still have to be inline in a sentence and
 not make sense out of context.
