Obviously this English string needs to be marked for translation. There is no consistency about whether option descriptions in .opt files end with ".", so this might produce ".. Same as" in some cases. While I think the .opt files should be made consistent, I also think it would be better just to give the "Same as" message without also repeating the description of the canonical option. -- Joseph S.
