The definately not recommend but quick and dirty way to change menu lables
is to edit the en.po file.  There is an XML file you can edit to change
the menu layout, you will need to ask nicely or rummage through the
archives to get more details (I dont memorize these kinds of details).

Actually, we would be interested in hearing your input on how the menu
items can be improved in general.  One of the goals for the next
version of GIMP is to have better menus.

The title bar can be customised from the preferences dialog.  You may need
to lookup the documentation to find out what the cryptic keywords actually
stand for though.

Changing the names of menu items isn't such a good idea and may cause
problems explaining what is happening if you need help later.  There are
ways to do this but they are either ugly or not easy and I would prefer
not to suggest them unless you are absolutely sure you need to do it.

What changes do you have in mind?
