[Bug 1039122] [NEW] translation quirks for product names

 

Public bug reported:

assume - client language is German
partner language is French

A new product is created (in German) and commited (which creates a translation and fills the name field of the product using the German name )
name = 'Apfelsirup'

the product name is corrected (for whatever reason) - this affects only the German translation.
translation = 'Apfelsirup 1L' 
name = 'Apfelsirup' 

for some products a french translation is entered. but not for
"Apfelsirup"

the product is named "Apfelsirup" in French, but the clients expects to
see 'Apfelsirup 1L'

same happens if a product is copied 
the content of the name field is "old product name (copy)" and shows up correctly in German after modification

Same problem for all translated fields - user do not understand and are
not willing to spend extra time to correct the base field which is
stored in the database.

Suggestion:
correct / update the database field with the entered(translated) value if user.lang == company.partner_id.lang
