I don't see how to make it fit in the About dialog though. The About dialog is
not very customizable (on purpose, so that all apps show the same).
One option is to add it as "Other" text, but IMHO it's a bit too prominent,
before the copyright and okular webpage link

The other option is have it in the "Thanks" section, which is semantically
wrong (e.g. the web link tooltip says "Visit the contributors page")

Maybe we should just go for the manual?
I noticed that different applications have different tabs in the Help >
About X info box. For instance: Dolphin has "About", "Components,
"Authors", while Kate has those plus "Thanks To".
Could it be worth adding a "Sustainabaility" / "Eco" tab? This would be
a place to include information about Blue Angel eco-certification and
other energy measurements, or aspects of the software which make it more
sustainable (runs on older hardware, freedom from advertising, etc.)?
I think this idea fits well with the sustainability goal, in particular
"highlighting where our software is already sustainably designed".

What do you think?
