I think ideally folders should have one system name and any number of translated names. The name matching the current locale would be displayed, the others could appear in Properties. Should be the same for desktop and console. I know it wouldn't be too easy to get there, but it would be a solution that doesn't make i18n look like an afterthought and one could call it free of artefacts. -- Thorsten Wilms Thorwil's Design for Free Software: http://thorwil.wordpress.com _______________________________________________ Usability mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/usability
