Re: [PATCH] Component table text alignment

 

Interesting edge case - this is a good find.

Wayne, JP, etc:

How best to handle user fields that are renamed to match the "default"
fields (which depend on the locale of the user).

I could add a special tag to the default fields or make them uppercase,
etc, but that only shifts the problem to a different string comparison.

Regards,
Oliver
