The current authority search result display can be improved by:

1. Relocate Heading Type (i.e. Personal name, Geographic name) to its own
column;

2. Introduce hyperlink to each heading, so users can click them for more
information.  This will then free up the existing "Detail" column for "Heading
Type" above.

3. Rename column heading "Used in" to "Record(s)", and the column simply show
number of linked bibliographic record(s).  Click on this number will take to
the bibliographic concerned, unless there are more than one, then a result
summary list will display instead.

4. Column heading name "Action" to replace blank space/missing label above
Edit/Merge column.

5. If applicable, insert double dashes (--) between main and subfield headings,
so they are displayed like "Australia--History--21st century" instead of
"Australia History 21st century"!  So much better for reading when doing
authority works.

6. The final result will have columns (from left to right):

Heading | Type | Record(s) | Action (Edit/Merge)
