YES!

Excellent idea, to have the version of KDE in this tooltip. I would then 
prefer:
	KDE 1.1.2 system menu

since this is more descriptive then:
	Color outside the lines

I think a build date is maybe a little bit to much for the average
desktop
user. What should (s)he do with:
	KDE 1.1.2 BUILD 1.3.2 05.07.99 12:53 PGCC 1.1 w/ libc++ 2.93
(or whatever, I just made it up:)
