+    However, it is rather generic and can be setup for any application's setting dialog.
+    The actual contents (i.e. the arganization tree and tab contents) is provided
+    by a spec-array (the settingsList).
+    You will find a default settings list here, but in theory, applications may provide
+    their own one, or modify a copy of that list for specialized settings dialogs.
+    See class >> examples, #defaultSettingsApplicationList
+    and AbstractLauncherApplication >> settingsList for more info.
