Only one edit button for webcube document view

When you open a document in webCube and you have the rights to modiy the content object and the descriptors, there are two edit buttons, see screenshot attached.

We think this is very confusing and would prefer to only have one edit button that gives access to all available options.

    We still think that it would be better to have just one button that gives access to all edit functions. However, if you insist having two buttons in order to separate between content and descriptor modification, then at least give them different names. Two buttons with the name "edit", where one is for the content and the other is for the descriptors is really not intuitive UX design in our opinion. Thank you.

    The edit button for the descriptors is only visible when the corresponding detail view is shown and the user is allowed to edit. This may differ from the button in the top bar to edit the content.
