Hmm.  I'm trying to tie these two together: text input and
alternate input are both the same color, and end in "input".

I'm willing to change the name, but I'm not convinced that any of
thsoe are more attractive than "alternate input".  More to the
point, the bottom of "text input" tries to direct people there,
with the "easier editing environments" stuff.

Hmm, on second thought, what about calling it "Easier editing"?
That alliterates, so it gets a 20% bonus to its attractiveness. :)

No mouse-overs.  It's an accessibilty problem.  They're harder to
translate.  Blind people can't read them.  It requires fine
control over a pointer; I have difficulty controlling the trackpad
on my netbook to hover over a small area.
