Hello list,

After some discussion on the kde-usability mailinglist about the default 
K Menu naming scheme the general consensus was that using '"Description 
(Name)" is prefered over "Name (Description)". Recognising the function 
of an application based on it's name is a very daunting task for new 
users and even existing users because of the large amount of similar 
applications.

I attached a patch to change this, but don't think I actually know what 
I'm doing :)
