Create a new milestone from the milestone widget

Problem

If I need to quickly create a new milestone, I have to leave my current context and navigation to the Milestones in the nav sidebar. Then I have to remember where to go back to, then refresh the page to get the new milestone to show up.

Proposal

• When viewing a work item detail view, provide a way to create a new milestone directly from the milestone widget without having to leave the work item detail view.
• Once the milestone is created, it is automatically selected within the widget.

Acceptance

• A milestone can be created from the work item view.
• There is no required context switching out of the work item view.
