This bug doesn't cover the Accounts, Library, Web Developer or Help submenus. Those will be covered in separate bugs, as those strings are likely re-used for things like the menubar.

Gnome says "header capitalization" (similar to title casing): https://developer.gnome.org/hig/stable/writing-style.html.en and headerbars (hamburger/app menus) are commonly used there.

macOS doesn't commonly use these menus, but menu bars are generally supposed to use title casing: https://developer.apple.com/design/human-interface-guidelines/macos/menus/menu-anatomy/

Severity: -- → N/A
Priority: -- → P1

This doesn't include the Accounts, Library, Web Developer or Help submenus.
Those will be addressed in follow-ups.

Depends on D100042

We're going to need to fork &tabCmd.label; for the AppMenu, too.

As per guidance from Vicky, for tracking, we're marking all the bugs that people are working on as P1.

Whiteboard: [proton-foundations] → [proton-hamburger-menu]
Depends on: 1684950

Marking as P2. Per experience review we agreed to mark as P1 bugs only bugs that will block MR1.

Priority: P1 → P2

Status: ASSIGNED → NEW
Whiteboard: [proton-hamburger-menu] → [proton-hamburger-menu] [priority:2b]

Going to see if I can rebase this and get this pushed through now that more strings have been forked and the Sync brand strings have been folded up.
