What happened?

I clicked two items (plates?) to edit together; clicked BULK EDIT; presented with a dialog box offering me fields and new values. When I scroll through Field and select MOVE TO TOTE, it displays "Destination Tote" below. The Destination Totes are identified by an obscure identifier (looks like hex).

What did you expect to happen?

It would be better if the Destination Totes are identified by a different identifier; either Tote #1, 2, 3 as shown in §1 TOTES, or the human-entered label (in my case "RANDOM ASSORTED BOOKS", "PRE-SHELVED ACQUISITIONS", "SHELF 3/3", "SHELF 2/3", etc.).

Steps to reproduce

Choose two items from a tote;
click bulk edit;
select the action in Field to "Move to Tote";
the totes are identified below in the Destination Tote field.

Fixed; it goes live with the next deploy, and I will assign this back to you to confirm once it is.

Since this was filed, Bulk edit's "Move to tote" moved into the Move dialog, but the dialog still named each destination by an internal id. Destinations now show the tote's label (or "untitled"), its printed code, location and item count, and the filter box also matches the printed code. The "Tote #1, #2" numbering is not used because it is just the position in the current list and changes with sorting.

@tcurtiss this is now live in Ditto v0.13.40. Could you give it a try and close the issue if it works for you (or tell us what is still off)?
