Bug Description

The Privacy Panel has a new Diagnostics tab, with a button that says “Privacy Policy.” Buttons are generally labelled for the actions they perform. See the HIG on buttons: http://developer.gnome.org/hig-book/3.0/controls-buttons.html.en, which specifies “Label all buttons with imperative verbs.”

“Privacy Policy” is not a verb. Rather, it is a destination on the web. Conventionally, this should be a flat hyperlink, either a GtkLinkButton or part of a label.

I vote for turning the button into a GtkLinkButton so it doesn't affect docs and translations
