[gnome-cyr] More on (non-)translation of names



Hello,

Here's a followup to the dreaded "MySQL issue" :)
Trying to find what the MySQL's parent company thinks on translating
their trademark names, I've come across this:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/ru/Russian-terms.html

Note how generic terms are translated, but unique names are left
intact (non-translation of MySQL itself is not even mentioned).
This is one more example of the commonly accepted practice,
adopted this time by an open-source project.
Do we still think we know better? :)
