You could propose an insert into the user manual to flag this up.
We should be consistent so this would be a change to the whole application if desired (I'm not sure it's a good idea, especially given we already have context-sensitive help that points to the user manual). This would therefore be better as a separate feature request.
It's problematic if the translation gets dropped due to lapse in its maintenance, as it would lead to a non-functioning tick box. The whole idea of this change was to limit its impact by using pre-existing functionality. There's nothing stopping you from submitting a pull request to the repository proposing this change though.
One day I might get annoyed with all the American spellings and propose an en-GB translation, but without a sentence-case variant. In this case the proposed solution will not work |
@elstoc, I agree - it's rather outside the scope of this. I'd be glad to file it if you think it's of worth, or merely to have the issue linked here, if ever it's created.
Is that currently a concern?
@elstoc, surely you're aware that for the vast majority of people there is - I'm unable to develop in C, Lua, or C++. I'm still getting the ropes of damn CSS.

Summarily, the sentence case feature isn't easily discoverable - it's in the language flyout, despite not being a language - and applying it isn't intuitive:
Describe the solution you'd like
As #2078 (comment) states:
I can't imagine that having a checkbox appear or disappear based upon the chosen translation would be problematic to implement, and it would prevent the translation flyout being used to non-translation language stylisation attributes.
Alternatives
Most assistance is provided in tooltips:
However, as #2078 (comment) states:
Summarily, provide a button that invokes the tooltip, rather than a hover action, so that the user:
The undermentioned is a step in the correct direction:
