Recently, this text and 2 similar ones were added:
This category is public, everyone can see posts. To restrict permissions, remove the “everyone” group.

js.category.permissions.everyone_full_access
The problem I see with this is that group names are always in the default locale of the forum, but the admin may have a different interface language. I think it would be less confusing if the English text in my German forum would still refer to the group “jeder” because that’s what’s shown above
Is it possible to change this to
This category is public, everyone can see posts. To restrict permissions, remove the “%{everyone_group}” group.
Then the group name could be based on the name of the everyone group.

My bad - keep forgetting the “everyone” group is “renamable”…

Automatic group names are translated to the forum's default locale (e.g. "jeder"… in German). The category permission warning messages and inherited permission tooltips were hardcoding the English "everyone" name, which created a mismatch when the admin UI showed the localized group name.
Replace the hardcoded "everyone" in the four affected translation strings with a `%{everyone_group}` placeholder and pass the actual group name from the permission data at each call site.
