That is a good reason to have that text in a menu. But - on the tab bar, it
doesn't really matter: We have (and should have) one command for exporting as
PDF. If you want more, you'll go through somewhere else in the UI.

Same argument as before: We don't have multiple "Sign PDF" commands; it is
enough to indicate to the user that some kind of PDF signing will happen -
since this is not a menu, where we have lots of space.

Usually, but - isn't this a place where we make exceptions to shorten things?

So, making that a dependency for now.
