Can we call the presenters "Document window" ? Interactive is not right at 
the moment :)
Or is "Text window" better?

"Group Manager" is also hard to translate into German.
If everybody agress to "Document Index" I'll use it.

If you press the right mouse button on the module list and result list you 
have some options.
For example it's possible to copy a key into clipboard and another option is 
to copy the key with it's text into the clipboard.
Is there a better word for "Key with text"?
