[QGIS-Developer] project properties menu item: move it?

[Andreas Neumann]

I would prefer it as well, if Linux/KDE would have it in the project
menu. 

I had a brief look at it with Nyall in Nodebo - somehow someone (some
years back) claimed, that KDE had it in the HIG (human interface
guideline) that everything settings related should be in the settings
menu. 

But I think it creates more harm than that it helps.
