 Replying to [comment:2 andizer]:

 well.

 I think that `$this->name` is just the slug, and `translate_role_name()`
 needs to be passed the `display_name` (which isn't on the `WP_Role`
 object). So we also need to change things so that `WP_Role` is constructed
 with the display name too, or else have `WP_Role` retrieve it from
 `WP_Roles::get_names()`. (It's all very confusing, I know!)
