I like the sentiment here but I'm not sure if this is such a good idea
so close to the cutoff date for Alpha 4, all of the translations are
now going to have to be updated to accommodate this change.

This I do not like since the preference item in Tracker is not
analogous to the Media replicant in the status tray. The Tracker
preference item should be called "Preferences".
That being said I am not happy with the preferences item being where
it is currently located in the "Window" menu. The preferences do not
relate to the current window, they are global. I would prefer to add a
new top-level menu as the first item in the menubar called "Tracker"
and place the "Preferences" menu item within it.
