Seems I did already when I first noticed it but it slipped my mind that I
had use the Novell Bugzilla rather than Gnome.
"Avoid the word Favorites/Favourites in the main menu"
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=174167
(requires a Novell bugzilla account to read the request)

The request has been rejected.

In technical terms it is dissapointing that GTK does not have a stock menu
item for Bookmarks because if it did we could at least make a change and
use Favorites consistently instead of Bookmarks (and maybe the term
Launchers too) but dissapointingly Novell seem unwilling to avoid
introducing this bit of inconsistent terminology.  (I'm not unwilling to
provide a patch against the version in Gnome CVS but it doesn't seem like
that would be helpful.)
