The Windows version of the alert is a little better than the Ubuntu
version, because it at least mentions what the opposite of linking is,
and it gives an explanation. It still could greatly improve its layout,
though. The explanation has two sentences, the first sentence repeating
the word Embed

The difference is between versions, not platforms (0.47.0-2ubuntu3 vs

While technically correct (Inkscape can't edit the PNG file itself (or
