Sorry, I don't have the time for these right now. Maybe later I can send
screenshots. Maybe you can just take a look at GNOME Printers or Users,
where there are these "labels" (which are actually buttons) which change
into text entries on click. I want to do something similar, but display
an edit button beside them to trigger this.

The whole point of this is to get to know when the user finished editing
the string so that it can be applied immediately. If we simply show a
text entry, like I do in the prototype, we don't know when the user
finished editing the string and there is no visible indication to the
user when his change is applied.
