@opysaryuk However, (out of scope of the current MR) I looked around the nearby context of this UI on the screenshots, and got curious about this text: Description (optional):
It does not come from this string in the .pot file: msgid "Description (optional)" (which is likely used in the labels template).
It rather seems to be a construct of two fragments: label Description, + the string (optional) from the gl-form-group component: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ui/-/blob/main/src/components/base/form/form_group/form_group.vue
Looks like when the optional prop is there, the text (optional) gets appended to the label Description. Which is a very curious localizability problem, because the component works so that it makes the text (optional) unavailable to be translated, thus the text won't show to non-English users in their language
Seems to be a feature of the component, that ideally may need to be refactored in order to support translatability
