GenericName is the field for application descriptions which show up in kde.org/applications and in the menu descriptions.
For the application description shown in Discover, see T13077.
This task does not require much help from Promo, as GenericName should be simply descriptive. However, knowledge about the application is required.
It would be preferable not to be excessively generic, though.
