I read on the IRC that the samba-integration was almost ready. The text 
should reflect that. If its not ready, or dont have anything to do with 
the help-text :-)

This was a nice feature. It didn't work thou. The buttons give you a 
search of all the users.

My suggestion was to remove functionality in that menu because it didn't 
work. It did something totaly different. It gave a list of all the 
users. When it is explained, it is a good function. I dont know why it 
dosn't work?

Anyway. Mye sugestions of help-text is a result of what I see when 
testing the application. It does not always reflects what I realy get, 
and its somwhat a lousy first try (as first tries often are).  The 
short help-texts should explain what I should expect in short terms.  
Sugestions of better short form help-texts are appreciated  :-)
