There was not a "Inelegant Design" category available.
The issue is why show the Edit Fields dialog for 5 of the 8 Docinformation
fields that cannot be edited in any way? As noted in Comment 7, there might be
appropriate alternatives in some cases when double-clicking the field, and
comment 6 suggests better labeling in the Edit Fields dialog, when it is shown
for the appropriate cases.  Have changed bug summary.
