Can the wording in quotes be changed. Quotes are not orders. If a question is
asked by the potential buyer asking for a quote, it gets called an order (by
the red flag). This is not correct, it is still a quote.

This is not about whether the quote system should exist, or how it works when
parts are bought by others. It is just to flag up the incorrect wording currently
used by BL that may cause confusion when an order has not been placed.
