This way it will be easier to change the behavior of all table actions,
like adding ARIA attributes. In the past, when we changed the behavior
of the `link_to` method, we had to change all table action classes.
Note the CSS could probably be improved to avoid duplication with other
button style definitions. However, that's fine because we're going to
change the style of the links soon.
For the same reason, I haven't bothered to style every single link the
way it was until now.
Don't use <label> tags for things that are not labels, add a proper
<title> for the page, add a back link, remove an unnecessary
`inline-block` style for a header, localize dates and field names, ...
The interface could be further improve: proper diffs for long texts,
better separation between fields, ...
The name of the changed field is translated, values are truncated so
descriptions with thousands of character would make this table huge and
impossible to read, dates are localized, and values like arrays and
booleans are displayed properly.
Our manual implementation had a few issues. In particular, it didn't
track changes related to associations, which became more of an issue
when we made investments translatable.
Using audited gives us more functionality while at the same time
simplifies our code. However, it adds one more external dependency to
our project.
The reason for choosing audited over paper trail is audited seems to
make it easier to handle associations.
