Would we maybe also want to also coalesce to just "name" as an ultimate fallback here?

I haven't tested it, but I think otherwise non-latin-names might be completely missing from the map (if there is no latin transliteration for the name in the tiles)?

name as final fallback sounds good in theory, but I'm not sure if something like that is working.

I assume the idea here is to skip any layers with textfields that do not depend on the name from the tiles. But is also on purpose to ignore layers withtext = ["get", "name"]?

We already ignore layers where ["get", "name"] is present, since the layer check for at least a : .

Yeah, that's my question: is that on purpose?

Not saying it's right or wrong, just occurred to me that I'm not sure whether a developer would expect such a layer to be localized or not...

Thinking about it more, i think there is a good argument for either approach:
- On the one hand, if the style author sets text = ["get", "name"] they may explicitly always want to show the non-translated name here --> we should ignore these layers
- On the other hand, if the developer explicitly calls this method to localize map labels, they might expect all map labels to be localized --> these layers should be localized as well

I would definitely go with option 1 because of multiple reasons:
- If the author just set
["get", "name"]or[ref], they want the plain name for sure. - The developer should not care about which layer will be translated and which not, since the most developer are not familiar about the different layers and how the styling is working in detail.
- The
setMapLanguagefunction would not work in our case, since we have a lot of usages of["get", "name"]and[ref], and the text is just empty in that cases.

Strictly speaking, this is a breaking change, right? Since 2.14 is almost 2 years old I think its fine, but we might want to note it in the changelog.

Ah, maybe in general add an entry to the changelog about this PR
