On further testing, it looks like the problem here is that the
switchbox's width is hard-coded to the English language labels "On" and
"Off". Having a label that is significantly shorter *or* longer than
this, will cause display problems. So, it works for the "Yes" and "No"
switches (which you see on the "Add users by CSV" screen) but it doesn't
work for "True" and "False" (which is supported by the switchbox element
but not currently used in core)

The French langpack has cleverly worked around this for on/off by
setting them to "❙" (that's some kind of unicode pipe character which is
wider than the ASCII "|") and "O" (capital-O).

For "Yes" & "No" it has "Oui" and "Non", and as a result it has display
problems.

** Summary changed:

- Display problem with Switchbox when label strings aren't exactly the same length as English-language label strings
+ Display problem with Switchbox when label strings aren't the same length as "On" & "Off"
