Just so that I understand this correctly, previously l10n teams could provide their own .html files that would be shown by step.

This is broken in the 19.12 branch.

Your fix improves the situation by creating a .po file and then creating those .html files on compile time (besides making the .html files be used at all)

Am I right?

If so, this is "a bit" of a "l10n freeze break", right? 

I mean it adds new strings in .po files that previously were translatable only translating the .html files manually (so they did not really influence stats)

Would you mind doing a quick round of asking in the l10n list if they would have any problem with having more .po stuff?

Besides that if you're confident we're not regressing the english text somehow I think it would probably be fine to have it in 19.12.

Cheers,
