Description

After #4511 (v4.2.0), its possible to add Redmine groups as watchers on issues.

Users are shown as links, and groups are shown in Overview as links, and in Assignee field. However, gruops are shown as text when they are added to watchers

In the screenshot bellow, you can see 2 groups - 1 in assigne and 1 in watchers. You can see that user watcher is provided as link, while group is text

This behavior is not consistent and its harder for people involved to see group members (they must go to Overview page and search for that group there).

I think the following code will solve the problem.

The problem is that there are multiple methods to render user/group links:
  • link_to_user
  • link_to_principal
  • link_to_group

Before r21073 only link_to_(user/group) existed and it was clear what method was responsible for.

link_to_principal combined both link_to_user and link_to_group and now it's really confusing what the difference between all of them.

I would suggest to unify link_to_user and link_to_group into link_to_principal or properly decompose link_to_principal.

Indeed, it sounds confusing. If you have code proposal, I'll very happy to review it.
