Bluetooth send file window

SUMMARY
I have been sending files via Bluetooth from Dolphin recently and think the UI of the dialog that pops up after clicking Share > Send via Bluetooth... could be improved.

1. The window has "Dolphin" as a title. Wouldn't "Bluetooth Send File Wizard" make more sense as that's the window name when sending files using the Bluetooth system tray?

2. The task bar icon of the window is the Dolphin icon. It should instead be the Bluetooth icon to make it easier to identify. 

3. What is that big head line "Send via Bluetooth... - Upload..."? I would just drop that one if the window title is changed as proposed.

4. The list of devices does not look like you could click them. I was a little confused the first time I used this dialog. How about designing them as obviously selectable?

5. Why does the "Run" button say "Run" instead of "Send"?

Dialog comes from Purpose framework, not Dolphin, re-assigning.

Agreed.

Nicolas, I think I saw in the VDG room recently that you were working on a better design here?
