A way to mark the app "Name" as untranslatable
It's not a big problem, but sometimes developers don't like translatable app names and can prevent the app name from being translated in the UI and appdata via the translatable="no" or translate="no" properties.
I don't think there is a way to mark the app "Name" as untranslatable in the desktop files. It would be nice to provide this feature.
[Desktop Entry]
# Translators: Translate as "Letterpress"
Name=Letterpress
[Desktop Entry]
# Translators: Application name, avoid translating it!
Name=Zap
# Translators: Generic application name.
GenericName=Soundboard
[Desktop Entry]
# Translators: Do NOT translate or transliterate this text (this is the application name)!
Name=@NAME@
[Desktop Entry]
# Translators: Application name. Translate as "Lorem"
Name=Lorem
