Replace "it's" with "its":

cookieSetManual=Set a cookie by specifying a key name, it's value and optionally one or more of the following attributes: expires (max-age in seconds or the expires date in GMTString format), path, domain, secure

The following two descriptions should contain a "that", but I could be wrong (it sounds wrong to a non-native speaker like me):

# LOCALIZATION NOTE (addonAlreadyEnabled) Used in the output of the
# 'addon enable' command when an attempt is made to enable an addon is already
# enabled.

# LOCALIZATION NOTE (addonAlreadyDisabled) Used in the output of the
# 'addon disable' command when an attempt is made to disable an addon is already
# disabled.

Also, I noticed that there are other inconsistencies within the gclicommands.properties file. Should I fix them and re-submit a patch under this bug or create a new bug?
You can also fix these issues in this bug.
Thanks. Are there official guidelines one how the gclicommands should be structured? For example, when to use a period at the end of a sentence, etc?

Also, when referencing the document object, should it be capitalized? inspectNodeManual uses "Document.querySelector" but the actual command would be "document.querySelector".

I leave the gclicommands to the Style Editor owner, period at the end usually mean "launches something which requires user input" (CCing l10n for linking the documentation)

Yes, this should be changed to prevent confusion for people not being familiar with |document|. You will need to update the entity name because the meaning changes and the localizations should pick this up.

Pike: This is in devtools, should all entity names be changed because some locales don't translate devtools or is there any other possibility to port the changes to theses localizations?
Some of these are borderline, so I've poked at mxr a bit to see if they're a problem.

The beauty vs pretty is mostly solved in the translations, the Javascript vs JavaScript isn't. The Document shows up about as often as document does.

I think we shouldn't change the keys, and just post in .l10n about the fixes.
Is there anything I can (or need to) do to help?
