      Description

      In some use cases the Job title field and and the organization name field may need localizing. This is especially useful for employee directories on multilingual sites using profile listings or Drupal views integration.

      We also sometimes need to localize parts of the address especially when addresses are being displayed on event pages. However this could be fixed by allowing a different address choice for each language on an event page.

      We have used the approach of creating custom fields for the French versions of these fields but it causes a lot of duplication of work issues, problems with autocomplete in webforms and more.
