Description
Problem to solve
Using the the verb trigger as a call-to-action may be confusing or complex for some users, see relevant discussion:
George: What do you think of renaming the action verb to Run and change this to Run Prebuild to make it sound less complex? We can keep the metadata information with the same verb (Triggered 2 minutes ago). Maybe also something to change in a future iteration.
Jan: Ah, I was confused by what this "Trigger Prebuild" meant. What is the intent? Is it to "Re-try Failed Prebuild"?

Proposal
We could rename the call to action verb to Run so that Trigger Prebuild becomes Run Prebuild. 🏃
We also need to take into account how we use this verb when retrying a successful or failed prebuild. ❓
TBD (To be discussed)
