I mentioned that in the patch notes :)

The page does both functions, here was my reasoning.

When I was working on this, I noticed that the images function basically stands
alone. Because it adds images for patron cards, I first added it to the "New"
menu, then went away and did other things.

When I came back to do the manage menu, I was personally surprised that it
wasn't there in the manage menu. If I want to manage things, wouldn't I click
on the manage menu and expect to find the interface to manage images there? So
I wondered if other people would be surprised that there wasn't a manage
interface too (even though they are the same page). When I put the same link in
the Manage menu, it felt right to me. Balanced. Even though technically we are
putting a link to the same place in two places. 

I want people to be able to expect that they will find what they are looking
for in the place they think it might be, so that's why I did it that way.

There might be another way to do it - we could make a link in the sidebar menu,
but that would be a departure from the way the Label Creator works now and
would be an inconsistency in itself. Or maybe you have an idea on how to do it
differently, I'm completely open to suggestions.

Cheers,
Liz
