Actually, that's pretty much exactly the format that Eclipse users will be expecting.
CVS: Add to .cvsignore SVN: Add to svn:ignore
I suggest that we go with that style of format for the menu items, in order to achieve consistency with the way that the other team providers work.
Note also that the tooltip is usually much shorter than that ... it's not a full help description, it explains what it does.
