Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gparted

gparted menu entry is not HIG compliant.
Here is the current menu entry:"
Name=GNOME Partition Editor
Comment=GNOME Partition Editor
"

According to HIG the word "GNOME" should not be included in the menu entry's 
name:
http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gup/hig/2.0/desktop-integration.html#menu-item-names
"Do not include words like "GNOME", "X Window System", "GTK+" or other platform 
details in Application menu names. The user probably already knows what 
platform they are using, and if they don't, then application names are not the 
right place to inform them."

Also according to HIG the tooltip (Comment field) should be phrased as an 
imperative verb.
http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gup/hig/2.0/desktop-integration.html#menu-item-tooltips

"GNOME Partition Editor" is not phrased as an imperative verb.

** Affects: gparted (Ubuntu)
