It would probably be detail work that makes a more polished look for pro users. Even in general I dislike Apple's software, there is something positive to be said about their eye for detail. I guess this is probably where my suggestion is heading. As to me this does not look like a major change, but rather like a grindy (yet rather simple) task, I would be fine if it end up on the 'TODO later' pile and I could try to implement this myself (due to lack of time, it would probably take at least until 2026-09 though). If the existing label is kept as fallback, it doesn't matter if l10n is finished in time or not at all. While talking about bug 151665 yesterday I found more examples in the menu entries to track changes. "Vorherige", "Nächste", "Annehmen" or "Ablehnen" (en: previous, next, accept, reject) are named so in the keyboard shortcuts menu. Again very clear what they do from their location in the menu structure Edit > Changes > Next, but no so in a flat list with other commands. Searching for "nächste" (en: next) in the keyboard shortcuts menu: - "Nächste" - "Nächste Seite" (en: next page) - "Nächster Datensatz" (en: next data set) It seems like there wouldn't be that many entries after all to care about as 'next page' and 'next data set' wouldn't need the suggested treatment. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
