I don't think so. The ellipsis is really a layout problem and not an l10n problem. Yeah, broken record. The two frequent use cases where we show the ellipsis are either in a context that is dominated by web content, or that's a localizable string anyway. The first one is hard, the latter one is trivial. The problem about the first one is to understand where to break the OS integration piece. One way I have been thinking about would be to find out which font category the OS language is in, and only to use the OS font for those that match, and to use our font settings for all others. The real problem is, I have no idea how strict the selection of the OS font for chrome really is. Looking at DOMI, it doesn't seem to be a CSS rule.
