Hey Alexandre,

Thanks for updating the translation!

Ah yes, I guess that should be done.

A paned is a GtkPaned: 
<https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/GtkPaned.html>, so the grabber 
is the part of the UI that has a texture to make it look like one can 
do something with it. I'm not sure Adwaita even draws a texture for it 
these days, however.

Anyway it is indeed poorly phrased, but not a big deal since it's in 
the GSettings schema docs, and so not really end-user facing.

Good catch, thanks.

I've pushed an update for both the copyright and the labels, but will 
fix the "paned" terminology in the schema later after branching to 
minimise additional work for other translators for this release.

Cheers!
