Comment:

 Hey all, sharing a potential design solution based on an idea @NekoJonez
 had in the Accessibility Team channel on Slack! The idea was to add an
 additional column that indicates the status of individual strings in a
 table view. We discussed potentially adding an icon but since there are 6
 different status options, I thought a text label might be more clear.

 A few notes:
 • We could potentially add this new column after the “Priority” column and
 before the “Original string” column, with the label of “Status”
 • Another thing that I found was making it difficult to differentiate
 between one cell to the next was the very light gray border color being
 used. I would recommend using a darker gray like the gray used for the
 header bar area (hex # 666C70)
 • The “Details” link in blue (last column to the right) is also not
 providing enough contrast with certain color-coding combinations. I would
 suggest using the regular black text color with an underline to indicate
 that it’s a link.
