Research direction

Reproduce the issue in the annotator by making an unsaved change and selecting “Manage Columns,” then trace the navigation and unsaved-change warning entry points. Done means this normal workflow no longer shows a misleading leave-page warning, with the intended behavior or wording confirmed by the issue discussion.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

In normal user workflow, it doesn't feel like leaving the page and the message is unclear about what is happening.
