[Proposal] rename 'construction geometry' (blue) to 'helper geometry'

Seems to be a German-Thing. False Friend.

Other CAD systems seem to have been trapped by the same thing, but with "Hilfslinie" we will do better.

In my native language industry standard is translated to English indeed called helper lines. So I also find it confusing as for us non native English speakers construction geometry sounds more like something that is actually part of the object not just helping while drawing.

So I would suggest simple solution. In popup explaining tool and in documentation just put both wording. Use "construction geometry" as main term and industry standard, but also mention "helping geometry". That would help a lot for us coming from other parts of the world and would not hurt anyone.

I would guess, no matter which term is used it might have a confusing translations.

Just look up automotive names that didn't translate well...
