Would love if a button was just added to the screen when viewing an item, to get the ocr'd text. Then it would save a couple of clicks (instead of always having to first right-click the item, then click the view ocr menu item). I'm all about ease of use and save clicks. :)

Mock up (ignore the drop down arrow on the button, I just forgot to remove it in the mock up):
