Based on the feedback[1] from :flod, some string IDs should be updated and more localization notes should be added to make localization easier.

Bug 1407530 - Update formautofill.properties string IDs and localization notes.

The code part looks good. Thanks.

Should we ask L10N team to review IDs and notes if possible?

Hi :flod, the patch contains the string ID changes and localization notes we discussed on Github. Other changes in this patch are for updating string IDs and replacing hardcoded "Firefox" with brandShortname. Please let me know if the l10n part looks fine. Thanks again!

Strings look good. Mostly nits on comments, and one question.

I also wonder if we should take bug 1399502 into account when working on new features, but that's a whole different story.

I think we can simplify this:

If Sync is enabled, this checkbox is displayed on the doorhanger shown when saving addresses.

I'm curious about this one: you have "More Options" and "Preferences", does it mean you have a maximum number of characters that can be displayed? It would be helpful to explain in the comments.

I'm also not sure I can understand how it's used by reading the comment. Do you have a screenshot?

Thanks. Much more concise.

Here's the visual spec: https://mozilla.invisionapp.com/share/MQ8J8K4CE#/screens/246435182
When the input field width is <= 185px, the short form is used, so there's no exact character count.

The problem with this approach is that the logic is tailored for English. For example, the Chinese "large" text might fit all widths, while the German short version might be too long for that width. What happens to the label if it doesn't fit?

I guess this is a good subject for a follow up bug.

As for the comment, I would suggest something more detailed: 

Used as a label for the button, displayed at the bottom of the drop down suggestion, to open Form Autofill browser preferences. This version is used instead of autocompleteFooterOption* when the menu width is below 185px.
The label will wrap if it's too long, but doesn't have left & right margin, which could be fixed easily. I'll open a bug to address this scenario so that at least it doesn't look broken if it happens.

Thanks for the comment suggestion. I've updated them.

As for Bug 1399502, should there be a linux version as well? And should I change Windows strings to `Settings`?

Let's stick to Options and Preferences for now, I've asked there, but it seems like a long term goal.
I've filed Bug 1409250 to address the case when the string for dropdown footer is too long, and I've updated the patch with your suggestions: https://reviewboard.mozilla.org/r/188330/diff/2-3/

Shouldn’t this end with a trailing period?

You are right, there should be a period at the end of the sentence. Filed Bug 1412217 for it.

Thanks!
