For many web site users and those new to Drupal the use of the word "tracker" and "track" seem rather ominous. If it were possible to change the naming to a more friendly word it would be better. Overall I'm not sure what would work best, maybe something like "activity" although with the multitude of contrib modules there may be objections to this.

So, to chip away at this, on the users account page simply changing "Track page visits" to "Page visits" would be one step towards making this more friendly to users.

Any thoughts?

The patch still applies cleanly and changes the tab's title properly.
The current tab title "Track page visits" doesn't make any sense as selecting the tab doesn't begin tracking the user as the title suggests.

I think this should be committed to D8 only as it would be a string change.
