The word "delete" on the layer menu is too serious, should be "remove"
----------------------------------------------------------------------

         Key: UDIG-693
         URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/UDIG-693
     Project: uDIG
        Type: Bug

  Components: layer  
    Versions: UDIG 1.1.M4    
 Environment: Mandriva gnu/linux 2006.1(cooker)
    Reporter: Adrian Custer
    Priority: Trivial


The context menu for layers has a "Delete" menu entry. "Delete" should be 
reserved for operations where data actually disappears. The menu option removes 
the layer from the map and discards all the styling information. However, 
"Delete" seems like too serious a word. In the Catalog, the word used is 
"remove" which is a better description. For most users, "Delete" will give them 
serious pause and some angst the first time they do it. Then they will try to 
remember: 'that delete doesn't delete data but only removes the layer'. 

I suspect "remove" would be a better word.

cheers,
adrian
