Description

When we have translated keywords and the original English keywords, the test run would fail because the English keywords are unknown.
Would be nice to have an option to make this current behavior as a strict mode, and have the option to allow mixed translation and English keywords the default.

For example:

mode=multi   # The default (or mixed)

or

mode=strict   # The exact translation (or single) (or exact) ....

Copy of https://github.com/MarketSquare/robotframework-seleniumlibrary-translation/issues/59 because it also needs support from PLC.

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by tracing how PythonLibCore validates translated keywords and how configuration options are exposed, then review the related translation issue at github.com/MarketSquare/robotframework-seleniumlibrary-translation/issues/59. Done means mixed translated and English keywords are accepted by default while a strict mode preserves rejection of English keywords.
