Can I set up a translation so that _("ON") == "OFF" and _("OFF") = "ON"?
To continue this digression, does anyone else agree that Apple has set
the boolean usability world back 10 years with these ridiculous
sliders? They're cloned everywhere; I'm seeing them on web sites now too.
The translation issue and the "Wait, is that the current state or the
new one?!" problems are serious.

some kind of label to explain it).

The physical usage mechanic (a tap)
doesn't match the animation (it slides!). Ugh.

I know it's a bikeshed issue but thank you for raising this. Peering at these
and attempting to use a touch interface/gesture to activate them was an
unpleasant part of using the UX.
