I am. It says "A context menu enables to "show passphrase", "copy", and
"paste" as in GNOME OpenPGP agent". I do not see the value in enabling
storage with an 'Enable' button. And I thought, based on the
accompanying sentence, that text buttons appeared, specifically 'Show
Passphrase', 'Copy', and 'Paste', but two of these didn't seem valuable
as buttons.
Should there be an 'Enable' button? Lunar was asking the same thing, I
think.

You don't agree with the designation of a one-line language section, no
worries. It updates what Tails currently has in 1.x and saves valuable
space while also dedicating the appropriate amount of real estate based
on its function and use.
However, I do not see how longer text can be accommodated for without
truncating stuff in the one-liner, which is no good; horizontal space is
equally valuable.

This is beautiful! Three distinct sections for three distinct functions
all rolled up into one; king's cross.
The only issue I have is with the Storage section. I thought there was
a security issue with visually acknowledging the presence of storage and
that we were always filling storage as a protection. This would mean
that the 'Configure Encrypted Storage' button state would be displayed
always, in which case the text could read: 'Configure or Unlock
Encrypted Storage'.
If there is still conflicting objection within the one vs two dialog
Greeter, I can throw this and the two-pager (with relevant updates seen
here) into a clickable .pdf; let me know.
Wordlife,
Spencer
