Description Christian Neumair 2003-12-04 17:10:48 UTC 
Abusing the home icon to tell the user what the name of his home directory
is causes lot of translation problems since very often it doesn't
grammatically fit in foreign languages. The few information it contains
isn't very useful for most users since they don't know that someaccount
maps to /home/someaccount. Therefore it should be changed to "Home" or
"Home [Ff]older".
See #125964 for a similar GTK+ issue.

regs,
 Chris
