--- Comment #15 from Gerhard Weydt <gerhard.weydt at t-online.de> ---
I think that setting the default - at least temporarily, until a complete
solution is found - will help us to get rid of most of the problems:
Legacy documents can then be edited without problems. I think that nearly
everyone simply calls the dialog, adds the caption and then presses Enter,
without looking at the listbox for the category, as the proposed choice was
always correct in the past.
On the other hand, I think there will be very few new documents already created
in 6.1 or 6.2, in relation to the many legacy documents, so there will be only
a small number of people who will have a problem.
In addition, this would solve the problem for languages like German and Dutch,
where there is the problem of the same translation for the two categories.
We also should not forget that the introduction of the new category is not a
functional enhancement but only an - in my eyes ill-conceived - attempt to
remedy a bad choice for an expression in the english version.

By the way, I said in comment 7 that you would have to delete the caption and
set a new one. That was badly expressed: you have to copy the image, set the
caption and delete the old frame, which will also delete image and caption.
