One item/bug/request per bug report please. :) Let's use this to track #1, changing "Delete" to "Delete Forever". That seems reasonable. The text of this item lives in kconfigwidgets; moving there. Please do file new bug reports for the other things so they don't get lost. A possibly relevant merge request was started @ https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/kconfigwidgets/-/merge_requests/27 Consistency is important too. "Delete" is generally used, not "Delete forever". Same for "Properties": otherwise you would have to add the object name to any action. The object of the action is by default the object you are acting upon. I would personally be much against both kind of changes. The "move to trash" suggestions are a bit different and may be interesting to think about them My merge requests to change the standard text were not met with much enthusiasm. I suppose we could still override the standard text in just the relevant apps (Dolphin, KIO's KDirOperator, Plasma folder view, Kate). This would involve quite a few merge requests though, and there's the risk of them drifting out of sync later. I feel that this would defeat the point of having standard text in the first place. Doesn't seem like we'll end up doing this, sorry. :) |
