Issue It's frustrating when I'm on the Layout > Manage Blocks page and working with a block that is provided by a View, and then need to tweak that View but have no way to get to it:

So I have to go to Structure > Views, find that View, load it up, then find the relevant block display within that View... (or go back to a page on the front end that the View block shows up on and use the Contextual links to edit the View).
Suggestion It would be very nice to have an "Edit View" link in the drop list, that jumps directly to the relevant block display within that View automatically.
