<p>When I am configuring the fields for a given entry type, is there a way to see those fields' handles on the same page? I often reference the entry type page to know which fields are associated with a given entry type, but then I have to cross reference the fields page to make sure I'm using the correct handle. Is there a better way to do this?</p>
