TC10.50b1: Wrong strings used for extra drive space

The behaviour described in the bug report is either by design, or would be far too complex/time-consuming to be changed

No, we haven't.
Here are the shortest strings in Polish which aren't ambiguous:
2108="Poziom:"
2109="Pion:"
The first string starts too far from the button and is cut, the second one fits only just because of the letter "i" in the string.

As I see the full names are
Poziomy
Pionowy
and the established form of abbreviations does not exist.

Thus I have a suggestion: for translation of another strings:

add for one char and:

it looks quite harmonious and very understandable, isn't it?

That's a good solution, translators who have this problem should change these two string too.

I think it should be done also for English strings - for consistency and as a helpful hint:
2108="(H)"
2109="(V):"

5317="Extra space: &Horizontal (H):"
5318="Vert&ical (V):"

I did not change the English strings, because H and V seem obvious. But I made a note to the translators that they may want to change strings 5217 and/or 5318, or maxby use X: Y: or DX: DY: for these strings.
