Sorry about that. I was planning to add some text at first and then
saw that most others didn't have one either in this list, so I dropped
it again.

Curiously, the empty help text actually caused some serious problems
later on in my build testing, so this patch creates a regression unless
I remove that line again (as I should anyway).

Thanks for spotting this as well!
