This is the theory. :) In practice name element is not converted by
main_transform.xsl
(http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/xmlhelp/util/main_transform.xsl)
So you can leave it untranslated, or translate it, it does not matter.
Maybe it makes more sense to translate it, who knows, some day we may
use it as a tooltip of the link.

Best regards,
Andras
