A rabbit updates goals with care,
Visibility blooms everywhere.
Metrics join the workload trail,
Helm and CRDs mark the sail.

Link each new roadmap item to its tracking issue.

The document defines Now work as tracked by open issues. The new CLI, Headlamp plugin, and Metrics exporter entries do not identify tracking issues. Add the corresponding links, or create the issues before presenting these as active roadmap commitments.

in a browser-based cluster UI without a bespoke dashboard.

I didn't understand the meaning of this sentence, specifically the term bespoke dashboard.

Reworded to: 'Browser-based workload visibility built on the CNCF Headlamp project: shows the Karta workload tree, component status, and pod attribution.' — cleaner and no jargon.
