Description

When accessing Security report the term 'Site Default Course Role' is used instead of 'Default role for users in a course'. This could be misleading, especially in combination with the "Default course roles".

Possible alternatives:

Site Default Course Role:
1. Default role for users in a course
2. Default role for users in a course (global) (my+1)
3. Default role for users in a course (site)

Default course roles:
1. Default roles (courses) (my +1)
2. Course Enrolments Default Roles

In the frame of strings re-definition, I would like to tell that when an issue is raised up by the sewcurity report it would be nice to find a message explaining what to do in order to close the security hole found.
For instance: "Your config.php is not read only" (or something like)
Nice.... what am I supposed to do in order to fix this problem?

I suggest that each issue has a link to Moodle docs so that we can add details and discussion there.
