For the Preflight-Checker Preferences

So it may also be a good idea to have more verbose text in a pop-up next to each Preflight Check Preference menu item. A good example that could be utilized for pop up text would be here: http://fossies.org/linux/misc/scribus-1.4.3.tar.gz/scribus-1.4.3/scribus-1.4.3/scribus/doc/en/print2.html
