Description

Steps to reproduce
  1. Set the optional name for the identity provider (like "Staff" or "Student")
  2. In login mask the name of the identity provider is always displayed in one language only.
Expected behaviour

There should be a possibility to add multiple translations as kind of a system code. Maybe something like:
de_DE#Mitarbeiter:in##en_GB#Staff##fr_FR#collaborateurs

or such similar.

Actual behaviour

There is no possibility to translate the name.

Research direction

Start by locating where the optional identity provider name is configured and where it is rendered in the login mask. Review how localized values are represented in this authentication flow, then confirm that the provider name can be supplied and displayed in multiple languages without changing the existing single-language behavior.
