It's unfortunate, what causes such limitation? However, it should at
least be "Bezier" with a capital B. I'll fix it later.

Yes, I greped all documentation and there were more instances of
American English (e.g. behavior) than British English so I used American
English spelling to be more consistent.

There are files where both spellings are used in the same file. Which
spelling should be used in this case?

As I understand from lack of en-US translation in libreoffice/l10n,
en-US is the primary language of LibreOffice? Documentation should also
be in en-US, shouldn't it?

I didn't see any difference between prepend and prefix in that
particular place and replaced it with a more formal "to prefix"
"prepend definition jargon /pree'pend'/ (by analogy with "append") To
prefix or add to the beginning."
However, I will leave the only other place where it is used unchanged ;)
