That was why I suggested to dynamically change the wording depending on if a single file was selected, or a directory. It is far esier to say something accurate about a single file. :-) I still can't really find a good description for what it does on a directory... (That is: I understand the effect on a directory, but I can't fit that information in a short descriptive caption.)

Hmm... Maybe we could add a descriptive tooltip? "Affected" is too unclear on its own imho...
