1. Don't ignore localized strings that are the same as original …

   Avoiding storing identical strings is a clever measure to keep the
   appstream file small and clean, but it ignores translation differences
   between languages and their specific locales.
   
   Applications tend to "fallback" from missing locales by picking a
   translation of the same language but from a different locale.
   For instance, when missing a "pt_BR" translation, some apps will
   pick the "pt" translation instead. That usually works but there
   are some cases when it doesn't, such as for international words:
   Brazilian Portuguese (pt_BR) tends to use them, while European
   Portuguese (pt) has a translation for everything.
   
   This way, "GNOME Boxes" gets translated to "Caixas GNOME" in
   European Portuguese (pt) but the same "GNOME Boxes" name is
   expected in Brazilian Portuguese (pt_BR).
   
   This was initially reported as a Flatpak issue in
   https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/flatpak/2019-May/001578.html
   Because OP was seeing the wrong translations in Flathub and
   GNOME Software.
