Public bug reported:
https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/29213

Affects: gnome-menus (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed

Description:
This issues is listed on: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/TODO

Furthermore I would suggest to rename the menu item of gnome-app-install
from "Add Applications..." to "Add/Remove...". It is quite an
inconsistency to click on "Add Applications..." to actually remove an
application.

But "Add/Remove Applications..." is too long - espcially in some
translations eg. in German it would be "Anwendungen
hinzufügen/entfernen...". So I would suggest to only use the menu item
"Add/Remove...":

* The separator already makes clear to the user, that this is no normal
application.

* Secondly it is placed in the menu "applications" so the purpose of
"add" and "remove" should be clear.

*Finally the tooltip gives a hint: "Install and remove applications".

Regards,

Sebastian
