I am sorry. I will fix that and change the toolTip to "Next"

By proposal you mean this patch right?

I understood that now. I think that it is another place where some
enhancement can be done. When the two new buttons show up, the toolTips
remain the same. And the functionalities change. This does not seem
intuitive for new users.
The only reason I realized that was because you pointed it out.

Should I try to change this?

I could not understand properly. The title is what shows up in the toolTip.
But is there a place where the description shows up? I kept it just in case
it might be describing the button in some other place.
If not, I think we should remove it.
