The gist of it is that we have a properties notebook with four tabs:

Popup | Taskbar | Miscellaneous | About

In the help, we refer to the "Taskbar" as the standalone lSwitcher bar, and 
"Widget" as the XCenter widget. The properties tab includes settings for 
both the Taskbar and the Widget, so the label is misleading (implying only 
Taskbar settings on those pages). In fact, page 2 of that tab includes Mouse 
actions, and page 3 has our Exclude filters. Clearly, the label "Taskbar" is 
inappropriate.

My suggestion is to rename this tab "List" and to change the title of the 
first page from "General" to "Appearance" and splitting the page into two areas:

Common

    3D look
    Group items
    Icons only
    Maximum button width
    Auto hide delay


Taskbar

    Enable
    Auto hide
    Allow resizing
    Auto resize
    Flat buttons
    Top of screen
    Bottom of screen
    Reduce desktop workarea


What is not mentioned in the ticket is that it would be more appropriate to 
reorder the tabs:

List | Popup | Miscellaneous | About

Finally, and also not mentioned in the ticket, is that tabs with only a 
single page should not say "Page 1 of 1". In most notebooks, the page number 
is omitted.

This is all fit and finish stuff, of course, aside from the textual changes.

Thanks
