View hover

This interaction reveals more data about a view in the table, without requiring a user to click into it. A view is some sort of query into a user's data, often specifying a source for the data, and some string representing the actual query.

If a user is interested in a view, hovering over it for about a short period reveals that context, while elevating the item to make it appear more clickable. This lets folks save themselves some time when investigating a set of views if they're unsure which one they want from the names alone.
