This patch applies a common language and type-setting to the
systemsettings modules in kwin.

Considerations:
- The comment field might repeat the name, or give more detail about the
  specific settings on this page, this makes sense with how
  systemsettings and kcmshell present it
- Mentioning the words settings, configure, options, etc. is avoided --
  it is clear from the context that these are settings and options.
- Title-case throughout in line with human interface guidelines, see
  http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/Usability/HIG/Capitalization
- The comment ends up being the title, so the
- tech slang is avoided as much as possible, but left in where really
  necessary
- I&#39;ve left the Name field &quot;mostly untouched&quot;, as that one is key for
  the user to find the right module in systemsettings&#39; icon view and in
  the sidebars

The most prominent change is &quot;Compositor&quot; to &quot;Graphics \
Compositor&quot; (in the Title field). This is more like a &quot;suggestion&quot;, if \
you don&#39;t like it, I&#39;ll take it out again. Reasoning: &quot;Compositor&quot; \
is a very technical term, people who know graphics might recognize it. Others might \
not understand that &quot;composite&quot; is about graphics -- hence the
specialization.</pre>
