"Pondering about..." in Ponder Tag Screen in incompatible with Ponder Tags' translations #49

Description

The Ponder Tag Screen, to visualize the Ponder Categories (hereinafter Tags), utilizes the same "Pondering about..." prefix as for headers of specific ponders. And this creates an issue for languages with word cases system.

Here's an example with Russian. The "Размышляем над..." ("Pondering about...") prefix requires the Tag name to be in an instrumental case. But the ponder Tag name is in nominative case, which is wrong:

The case can not be changed to instrumental on the fly (the same way you previously did pluralization by appending "s" at the end). And we can't just turn all ponder tags' translations to instrumental case, because they are already displayed in the Index — where nominative case makes perfect sense:

That would mean for every ponder tag we'd need a nominative/instrumental case-specific counterpart. That is 36 more strings to add. Not really expedient.

My proposal:
"ponder.ui.pondering_tag" — a separate string that will be used for Tags only. Would be very useful for languages that mind the case system, and identical to regular .pondering for other ones.
