Please allow slash commands to be searchable by their English names regardless of the selected UI language.
I am a Japanese user, and when the UI is localized in Japanese, slash commands become harder to find quickly because many tips, screenshots, and remembered command names are based on English.
I think this is not only a Japanese issue, but a general usability issue for all localized UIs.
Ideal behavior:
- slash commands should remain searchable by English names in every UI language
- localized labels can still be shown
- if possible, show the English alias together with the localized label in the picker
Additional information
This request is not about forcing the entire UI to English.
It is specifically about making slash command discovery consistent across localized interfaces.
