Well, I shouldn't be opining too strongly on translatability issues.
Other people would have much-better-qualified opinions as to how well
it'll read if "none" has to be translated by itself.
But as to the behavior when the new message hasn't been translated yet:
the only case where anyone would see the untranslated message is if they
were in fact not connected, which we know is a seldom-exercised corner
case (else this bug would've been noticed long ago). So it might not be
worth arguing about. But ISTM that somebody whose English was weak
might not grasp that "none" (untranslated) wasn't meant to be a name.
