If I’m not mistaken, there are two types of customizable text content elements: those that will always be displayed in the site’s language and those that will be displayed depending on the respective user’s locale.

If that is correct, I’d like to suggest that this is made transparent for every text element shown under Customize - \> Text Content (In other words: add some kind of marker indicating something like “depends on user locale” or “depends on site locale”).

Reason: if you allow users to select their own locale and you adjust some text elements, it’s important to know whether these changes will be visible to all users or just to those using the site’s default locale.
