Description Christian Neumair 2005-10-29 11:24:37 UTC 
It would be nice if somebody took the time and investigated all our error
dialogs for formal consistency and stylistic issues. This includes the
capitalization of primary messages, the sentences of both the secondary and the
primary message, and boils down to a general comparison of our dialogs with the
HIG and its requirements.

This patch is untested. I can't get gnome cvs to work properly.

Something i noticed - When you have only 1 panel up and you try to delete it, it
pops up an error. Might it be better behaviour to disable the delete option
altogether? (disabled unless number of panels > 1)
