<p>You can either use Craft's static translation support (which will rename it anywhere in the control panel) to rename it or something like the handy <a href="https://github.com/lindseydiloreto/craft-cpcss" rel="nofollow">CP CSS</a> plugin just to target that tab and rename it.</p>

<p>I'm only using Globals for the editable site footer content. Explaining to the user they need to look in "Globals" is a minor thing, but one extra step toward making a system less user friendly. If I can rename the tab to Footer it'll be a lot easier for the user to find by themselves.</p>

<p>I don't want to mess with the Craft build itself as I like to keep it up to date. Any ideas, is this something I can do with a plugin?</p>

I've found a combination of [Craft's Static Translation](http://buildwithcraft.com/help/static-translations) and the [Control Panel Nav](https://github.com/engram-design/CPNav) allows me to hide and rename tabs. It will hopefully have removed a little bit of confusion with users.
