Ok, so it appears I don't know enough here. I expected to see the
name/brand unaltered in every language (but for pronunciation). Now,
if that's common in your language to do so with any brand name (say,
Coca-Cola, Mozilla, Firefox, IBM, etc.), I don't see why it would be
different here for Mageia.
