> Why should it be informative ? 

Because it is _always_ better to be informative. Especially in this case when cost (screen space) is something like 5 letters more.

> If you *explicitely* right click on this *specific* icon

I cannot be sure because there is no visual feedback of the click, it could be close to icon boundaries, it can be my hand is shaking (handicapped people), it can be my mouse is not 100% precise.

General principle: talk to user. Assure user about his/her decision. Do not force user to guess.

"KDE4 Target Users
Berna: I want to feel safe"

It is hard to feel safe when you have to answer ambiguous questions.

KDE4 should be safe environment, this case is in our reach. Why not to increase level of "social" security?
