... as do other tab titles. not an l10n bug.

Adding localizers to see if they can find a work around for this.

I don't think we can translate this string different. a general UX solution is needed!

[Delphine Lebédel [:delphine - Use needinfo]]

Have you tried any workaround consulting the l10n UX recommendations? https://docs.google.com/document/d/16P56U6bSM1KVunkCG3WLmtH1cmhQf7YxT4mTPyWAnUw/edit

If you have looked at this doc and nothing applies: is the truncation the way it is still understandable to the general public?

[Tim Maks van den Broek [:mad_maks]]

It is understandable to the general public but it doesn't look good!

Comment 6

[Delphine Lebédel [:delphine - Use needinfo]]

Thanks for the feedback Tim. Therefore nominating for koi? and asking for UX help!

[Stephany Wilkes]

Flagging Eric to see if VxD can suggest some improvements here. I would not, however, block on this since it is at least understandable.

Is it possible to increase the width of the tabs?  See attached mock up, there's more then enough room.
