Summary0017746: Polygon and Shape name inconsistency
DescriptionOn the Tools toolbar, there's options to insert a default shape or to insert a regular polygon. In English, the shape option is labeled "shape" and the regular polygon is labeled "polygon".

Once you've inserted these objects, the "shape" is named Polygon# and the "polygon" is named RegularPolygon#.

You can convert the "polygon" (regular polygon) into a "polygon" (shape), which is very confusing. Everywhere else in the Scribus user interface, "Polygon" seems to refer to all enclosed shapes and not the regular polygon.

I'm not sure what the best fix is for this - is there space to say "regular polygon" in the toolbar where it currently says polygon?
