Created attachment 9101408 1575512-jit-strings.patch (v3) This does the trick. I didn't add the observer, it seems more useful to block the undesired string lookup during IMAP's creation of the URI which also messes with folders. The visual effect is that folders first show in English and get localised a short time later. The observer solution would be the same, we'd need to re-retrieve the strings when it fires. Maybe that would fire earlier.
