I wouldn't say so, those strings in Nautilus are not that necesary, on
the other hand the translation into many languages (Spanish at least,
but I'm sure many others in which the words "certificate",
"public/private key" and "keyring" can be either male or female, with an
article before the word) was not very good and a bit forced since before
we had the variable instead of the whole sentence.

I would say that it fiexes not a potential but a quite big translation
bug, while nautilus strings do not.

Cheers.
