 I am OK with this decision; I will remove the unused entity.
 I do want to point out that it could be an issue if someone someone in
 China (or other locales) has an icon on their toolbar that has English
 text instead of their locale: it would stand out and a passerby could
 easily notice.  However, the default is that toolbar icons do not have a
 text label so this seems like a less likely scenario.
