In reference to the screenshot:

The "Remove from panel" is more explanatory than the simple "Remove" word in 
KDE.

I'd like to suggest new wordings: 

a. "Remove <Appname> shortcut from panel" 
            OR
b. "Remove <Appname> from panel"

I prefer letter a option. IMHO, it's more explanatory. A user will say, "Hey, 
I can remove it from this panel. It's just a shorcut anyway", or something 
like that.

After removing it, a feedback, or reminder dialog will appear, saying 
something like this:

--------------------------------------------

If you want to add this <Appname> shortcut again, Right-click on the panel, 
Choose Add -> Applet -> System Monitor

                 <Close button>

--------------------------------------------

Is it possible to make this "intelligent", so the dialog correctly points to 
the proper path, e.g. Choose Add -> Applet -> System Monitor (when removing 
System Monitor) or Choose Add -> Special button -> K Menu (when removing K 
Menu), depending on the shortcut that's being removed?
