Comment (by fheinz):

 Replying to [comment:7 tonnzor]:
 > As you see - codename is in English and may be - and it is done - easily
 parsed - that should stay English for sure.
 > "name" is human-readable name that is not used for parsing and SHOULD be
 translated into the user language.


 While I agree that this info should be shown to the user in translated
 form, I don't think it's reasonable to do so by storing a localized string
 in the database, but rather by translating it in the UI. Storing the
 human-readable name in English makes sense, because it makes it easy to
 provide translations for all languages, while if you store this kind of
 info in the local language, you can no longer provide a translated string
 to a user with a different locale.

 If the issue that prompted you to report this as a bug is similar to this,
 maybe you should reconsider the wisdom of storing structured data in
 localized form.
