Yes, these classes and names are there for historical reasons, although
they shouldn't appear in that test program. They have been copied from the
graph editor tool (from btgraphtest/graphedit), although they should have
been kept there.

It would be much more cleaner to remove then from varedittest, clearly.

Yes, the iModifiableDescription should also have a name + description, but
that's actually the iModifiableParameter that should loose its methods
about that.

The reason for this is that no text at all should actually be stored in
the iModifiableDescription and iModifiableParameter, because of
translation issues. All text should therefore be represented instead by an
ID that has to be used with the iTranslator class in order to find the
text to be displayed.

And such ID can be built automatically from the ID of either the
iModifiableDescription or the iModifiableParameter, therefore we don't
need any explicit methods within those interfaces in order to get access
to their names and description. Instead, we need to define the rule to be
applied for the construction of the ID's.
