So what are we doing here then? I've spent an extra-ordinary about of time on the niche feature which is clearly quite buggy in mozilla68. I'm not inclined to dedicate more time to it. So either I remove the patch again from TB 68 and you never get localised folder names, or we leave it "as is" with the "bad after-taste" of the previous language :-( - Could you check the new beta, TB 71. As far as I can see, it works there.
Hi Axel, maybe you can help me here: If landed a patch https://hg.mozilla.org/comm-central/rev/8c7735bd0dc3 to re-initialise strings for folder names on final-ui-startup. We also suppress any processing creating folders with the wrong names before that point. The patch works on trunk and beta, but not on ESR. There, upon getting the strings again, we get strings from a language pack (which clearly is available at final-ui-startup) which isn't the chosen UI language. That looks like and M-C bug. Maybe I can fix the issue in TB 68 by backporting something what may have been fixed in the Mozilla platform at some stage.
