Description
I think it should be added as a soft error, since not all frontends may want to let the service handle translations. For example, in Piped we handle translations ourselves and would like to continue to do so.

Research direction
Start by locating KioskInfo and the code that extracts its name, then review the discussion in pull request #1045 linked from the issue. Confirm how extraction failures are currently surfaced and make the name failure non-fatal, while preserving the ability of frontends such as Piped to handle translations themselves.
