Description Kat 2015-09-28 18:19:52 UTC
The "Settings" menu in the top bar contains a few settings and some system-related actions and statuses.

The documentation team would like to reffer to the menu as the "system menu" as it is clearly not just a settings menu, but that would be confusing to screen reader users as Orca currently reads "Settings menu" (see bug 708080).

The designs call it the "System Status" menu, fwiw:

Comment 3 Kat 2015-09-28 18:33:53 UTC
The documentation team considered "system status", but the menu contains settings as well as status so that, unfortunately, would be inacurate.
Comment 4 Kat 2015-09-28 19:14:29 UTC
The change has been approved by the i18n team for 3.18.1: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-i18n/2015-September/msg00172.html
