0007895: "Title" vs. "Greeting"
In the business partner window and elsewhere, the "Title" field has been changed to "Greeting". Title and Greeting mean two slightly different things in English - pls review which one is correct and change the setup window to match it (so the "Greeting" link should link to a "Greeting" window.

Generally, "Title" would be the title part of a person's name, for example Mr / Senor etc.

"Greeting" usually means how you would address the person in a letter or e-mail, for example Dear / Estimado / Querido etc.

Looking at the section in my spanish dictionary, it seems quite usual to start a letter with simply "Senor:" whereas in English to start a letter with just "Sir:" is unusual.
Decide whether the field should be Title or Greeting, and fix the setup window name accordingly. Purely from an english point of view it might make sense to have both fields, since they are different things.

Would it also be possible to include some defaults? At the moment it's extra work for the user to set up something that's quite mundane and would be common to all users within a particular locale.
