No, at this time there is no plans to do the translations. I also feel for these users, especially since the large majority of the time, nobody needs both sets of data. The problem is that we can't always predict when someone will need to see both languages and for what reason.
For 2 applications, they were not built in-house. We use Siebel and another app so we are limited to what we can do with these for UI layout and how the back end works as well.

Isn't it just a character mapping? Possibly create a setting that allows the user or administrator to select the appropriate latin translation if that is an issue but boy I'm feeling for those users having to enter that information twice. Some database owner or backend systems technologist needs to try a little harder to make that transform work behind the scenes - it feels like something is being pushed into the interface that isn't necessary. Of course I'm probably missing something - but these are the kinds of fights we exist for right? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
