The only change I see that is needed here is in the description on the toolbar
button. The button that says insert footnote/endnot directly should be changed
to insert footnote directly as this is what the button does. There is already a
button to insert endnote directly. The use of the word directly is correct
English in that those buttons by-pass the insert dialog thereby inserting the
footnote or end note directly into the document.
