Today, I was working on a much simpler version of this using `api.customizeComposerText()` 😅

This is a so much better solution. Thank you @awesomerobot!

In my experiments, I was never able to override the Composer button label for the categories using the [discourse-post-voting](https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourse-post-voting/227808) plugin. This becomes a bigger issue when multiple categories are enabled for post voting.

If I may suggest; enabling support for overriding `discourse-post-voting` labels, would be a great enhancement. ( :
