Accessibility: stock label icon names not localized or unavailable
GTK3 only provides stock label names for some icons: see
gtk/a11y/gtkimageaccessible.c, line 52 and further.
Many of these icon names are not localized; namely, those
whose Gettext context isn’t specified (e.g. window-minimize
)
or isn’t merely “Stock label” (e.g. "Sock label, navigation"
).
The attached script allows you to reproduce the problem:
if you launch it with LANGUAGE=fr
, LANGUAGE=th
or anything
other than C or en_US, you can see in the console output
that some action names are still printed in English.
This is a problem for users of screen readers in applications
that do not specify explicit button labels (for example the
Vocal podcast application).
