Ok, this is interesting!
Does anyone have a screenshot? I'd like to see how this choice is
presented (is it part of a string, or does the user just see "Mood:"?)
I have one translation that is very long (39 characters) that I guess
might not fit. Also, I'd like to see how "Undefined" is used.
Thank you for any help.
