Improve the "Recur" feature for Automation (within Work Item) so it's clear what this does

      If a user clicks the Automation button at the top of a Work Item, they have the option to set up a "Set to recur" action (such as "Recurs daily"). It is unclear what this means and what is actually "recurring". 

      If there are no existing Automation rules listed, and a user goes to set this up to "Recurs weekly", it looks like nothing happens. There is subsequently nothing shown. 

      What actually happens in the background is that a read-only Automation rule is create to "Clone on a schedule". 

      It is not clear that clicking to "Set up recur" will actually set up an Automation rule to clone the Work Item. And afterwards, it's hard to know that a new rule or action was actually configured.
