Good suggestion - thanks!
Saying that the encryption key has been created is a lot more
meaningful than talking about "key data".
(Talking about "Random key" here might be confusing, as we
already use the term in the "Key type" option with a different
meaning. Here we mean: "The persistent encryption key has been
created from a random source". For the key type, we mean "The
key is non-persistent and will be recreated from a random source
(and data will effectively destroyed) each time it is used.")
How do we go about changing the string? Should we ask for review
from -l10n-english first?
