RFE: Speeding up license correction #88

Hello team!

from a position of person fast-tracking Leap legal reviews in my spare time.
As part of my reviews if I see a package where list of licenses doesn't match the spec file, which is every second review of community packages basically.

I typically want to submit the correct license right away. You typically want to send SR to the development project, where the package is developed. Then get a change to Factory and finally Leap.

I typically start with osc bco $some:Devel:project $package ... followed by commit && sr once the license in spec is tweaked.

For that, I typically click on the SR (in my case Leap SR), which takes me to the OBS Leap submission. Then I click from there on the source (typically openSUSE:Factory) from where I can see developed in particular devel project.

It would help me to speed up such corrections if I'd see "developed in (link)$project(/link)" right in the WebUI of cavil.
The ideal would be "To checkout package osc bco $some:Devel:project $package". But perhaps that's too much detail for applications outside of OBS (not our case), but that would be quite nice.

It might sound like not a big deal, but we have a queue of 100 plus packages, and a good 50 will have incorrect/partial license tags in the spec file. And that is a lot of clicking.
