Finish vs. close

[Sebastian Heinlein]

Sebastien asked me to bring this topic to a wider audience [1]:

An half year ago the background capplet of GNOME was converted to
explicit apply behavior. After a short discussion this change was
reverted [2]. But not by restablishing the old close button, but by
introducing a new button label: finish.

I think that this is a bug of the background capplet, that should be
fixed for edgy, since it clearly violates the current GNOME convention
to use close buttons. There is no other dialog with finish.

So here is the bug report:

Cheers,

Sebastian
