enough-for-my-girlfriend/

"The only problem I see here is the name of Transmission in the menu. I
imagine that her problems would’ve been reduced if only they listed
“Transmission BitTorrent Client” instead. How on earth is a user
supposed to know what Transmission is? The icon certainly doesn’t help.
They do this with “Firefox Web Browser”, so why not Transmission? Weird.
They could even just put “file-sharing client”, and when it loads up for
the first time a wizard can help the user understand what BitTorrent is
and how it works."

I think he has a fair point. Putting this out there as a usability
bug... sorry, I filed it under the package "gnome-main-menu" as I
couldn't work out what else to file it under.
