I've noticed the use of imperatives on Facebook as well...like <latlh tI'a=
ng> or <yIteq>...I understand it, but it's kind of weird. Or maybe it's m=
ore authentically Klingon and I'm just too new at this language to apprecia=
te it.

I'm not sure whether the imperative is the best way to translate such
computer labels.
In German, for example, I'd use the infinitive.
In Klingon, I'd be inclined to use a {-meH} form (influenced by the
{vutmeH} book which I seem to recall), so here: {mughmeH}. Compare
also your {je'meH} for "shopping" further above and {peghmeH} for
"privacy" below.
It's as if you can use those links "in order to" translate something,
log out, ....

I'd add a {vaj}: {bIyonbe''a' vaj ghoDubmoH} (or {bIyonbe'chugh vaj ghoDubm=
oH}
