[Bf-translations-dev] Translation Issues Report s4

[Bastien Montagne]

Hi Gabriel,

Answer is: no, and no! :P

Both cases are data names, we *never* translate those in Blender (I know 
there are a few cases where it could turn useful, but most of the time 
it's rather annoying, in in some situations it can become a nightmare, 
because these names are used too as id for the relevant data). So all in 
one, making this work as needed/expected would be higly time-consuming 
and bug-prone, for (imho) few benefits… Thus we (I :P) decided to just 
never try to translate them names.

Kind regards,
Bastien
