Description
When I select a single content item, I can see its title and owner along with the usage data, but what I really wanted to know was what is this content? I see that it is used or not, but I can't tell what it is without opening it--maybe that's expensive to do, and we don't need to fire up a process for that. And if I'm an admin, maybe I can't see what it is unless I add myself to it, which I don't necessarily want to do.
We should show some more facts from /__api__/v1/content/:guid on the screen.

Research direction
Start at the screen shown when a single content item is selected and inspect the data returned by /api/v1/content/:guid. Identify which additional content facts can be shown without opening the item or starting a process; done means the usage view provides enough detail to identify the content.
