  IMHO it generally makes sense to improve string--as long as they are genuine \
improvements!  
  I'm okay with some of these changes but amincreasingly unsure that changing the \
"Comment" fields on the desktop files is a good idea. That field determines the \
largest string on the page that //looks// like its effective title. However \
semantically it's not the title; it's really more of a caption. But its size and \
position makes it look like a title and the result is a little odd:  
  F6398172: Inconsistent titles.png <https://phabricator.kde.org/F6398172>
  
  I think it would be worth putting some thought into coming up with an improved \
visual design that gives less prominence to the Comment so that it doesn't look like \
a title and feel inconsistent with the other displayed title-like strings in the UI. \
Once we do that, then changing the capitalization may not be necessary since the \
comment would return to its proper place as a simple caption which probably doesn't \
need to be in Title Case.

<p>I&#039;m okay with some of these changes but amincreasingly unsure that changing \
the &quot;Comment&quot; fields on the desktop files is a good idea. That field \
determines the largest string on the page that <em>looks</em> like its effective \
title. However semantically it&#039;s not the title; it&#039;s really more of a \
caption. But its size and position makes it look like a title and the result is a \
little odd:</p>

<p><a href="https://phabricator.kde.org/F6398172" style="background-color: #e7e7e7;

<p>I think it would be worth putting some thought into coming up with an improved \
visual design that gives less prominence to the Comment so that it doesn&#039;t look \
