It can also look like a (/) strikeout symbol.

The other thing that is confusing here is that the binding of the icon to the thing it changes is not clearly established.

In some cases, such as "update description/tags" the icon is to the left and the text is blue and hover:underlined. In other cases such as the title the icon is to the right and the text is neither blue nor a link. For the description the icon is below and in a different paragraph. In the case of tags the field is not shown at all until a value is assigned. In another case, "affectsme", the icon is not used at all, but just the text "change". (I actually think this is easiest to understand at present, and would be an improvement.)

In one case the text describes the current state "this report is public" and in another case it describes the action "update description/tags", and in another case the text just _is_ the current value.
