--- Comment #6 from Yousuf Philips (jay) <philipz85 at hotmail.com> ---
The format strings are defined in the below file, so it really just comes down
to us deciding what the new strings should say.

@Eike, @Maxim: Your input on this would be appreciated.

As novice users dont use the dialog or the split button part of the paste
toolbar button, as they simply click the main part of the paste button in the
toolbar or Ctrl+V, there doesnt need to be modes for the dialog. What the
dialog does need is a label description under the selection list that details
what the type of option can be used for, similar to the one found in the Tools
> Customize dialog.
