[Bug 964673] Re: [UIFe] keyboard shortcut overlay needs more consistent wording
Seeing that while they might be necessary to provide better wording on
the original strings, the changes should probably not affect the
translations, so from the translations team I'd say +1 only if:
* The package additionally provides a one-off patch that:
- Includes the latest translations from Launchpad (i.e. the PO files for all languages)
- Replaces the strings that that change touches to all 'msgid' fields in the PO files. The translations themselves in the PO files ('msgstr' fields can be left untouched)
Once the package has been uploaded, the translations will have been
imported into Launchpad and the patch can be dropped on the next upload.
I know it's a pain to do this, but the changes really touch a lot of
strings that will break quite a lot of translations otherwise.

[UIFe] keyboard shortcut overlay needs more consistent wording

Bug description:
I'm submitting a merge proposal to go with this.
The keyboard shortcut overlay (when you hold down the Windows key) has
several wording issues:
- Inconsistent verb tenses ("open" and "opens")
- Minimise (Minimize is the correct spelling in US English, which is what the C locale should use)
- Super (Press) is confusing; changing the text to Super (Hold) makes it more clear that holding down the Super key will show the overlay
- Cursor keys; I think a typical person calls them arrow keys
This won't affect ubuntu-docs, but it does create new strings for the
translators.
