--- Comment #3 from V Stuart Foote <vsfoote at libreoffice.org> ---
OLE based or some "simple" COM Component Object Model, it is still an Object
being linked and embedded ;-) 

The ZXING based QrCodeGenDialog.cxx isn't an OLE, but we do use IOleObject
notation extensively cross platform so not incorrect to label the menu entry
"Insert OLE Object".

Personally I have no issue with leaving menu entry OLE or truncating to Insert
-> Object, but is that really any more descriptive for users?  Or an
improvement for l10n?
