Description Baris Cicek 2008-02-02 10:58:03 UTC
During translation I encountered the following text;
#: ../gnome-panel/panel-force-quit.c:207
"If you choose to force an application to exit, any open documents in it will 
be lost."

This information is misleading user to believe her application would remove existing documents, however text should tell this to user:
"If you choose to force an application to exit, changes on any open documents in it will be lost."
or
"If you choose to force an application to exit, your unsaved changed in it will
be lost."

If any application would lose an open document, this means that application has a very major problem.
