Just making a note of this for later - I think we could do a much better
job with adding translations for effects and adjustments to
messages.pot. Currently, the SimpleEffectDialog class does some magic to
generate a user-friendly string from the EffectData property names (and
for enum types). As a result, automated tools (such as our "make
updatepot" command) don't recognize those strings as translatable, and
we currently add them manually to po/messages.in. Since that file can
easily get out of date, we run into issues like this one.

I think we should use the Caption attribute for all of the EffectData
properties, and we could then modify the Makefile to automatically
recognize those strings as translatable using the --keyword argument to
xgettext (http://www.gnu.org/savannah-
checkouts/gnu/gettext/manual/html_node/xgettext-Invocation.html). We
could probably have some similar attribute for enums to specify the
strings as well.
