Bug Description
When using Chinese as the system language, you can see from the screenshots that application names are shortened inconsistently in the app switcher. For gnome-terminal, it's shortened/truncated to be 2 Chinese characters, for "show desktop", it's 3, for firefox, it's even more. This is very bad user experience.
