Thanks for the reply. I know nothing will break if it gets translated :)
However I can't see any reason for that label *not* to be translated, and
as such I think the comment should be changed to a milder wording, leaving
it up to the individual l10n teams to decide whether or not to translate
that format name (both in this string and in the format selection list in
settings).

Best regards,
