We use the system back button, so for 'second tier locales' (i made that
up, i don't know how iOS calls this), the button label is not translated
and appears in English.
However, what we can do is simply not use a system Back button but provide
our own localized version. We have done that for Firefox too I think. I
remember the Cancel button being localized even though it is usually a
system button.
Because Sorbian is a second tier language, there will also be some system
dialogs in english that we cannot change, but if we cover things like back
buttons then at least the app itself will look pretty consistent. Which I
think is a good thing.
I'll file a bug if we think that is worth it.

Yeah we missed that one. It should indeed be a placeholder where we fill in
Klar or Focus. We can push a new string early next week.
Question: if I do a bulk change for this directly in the Focus L10N Git
repo, will that change appear back in the tools that people use? For
example, does Pontoon sync two way with the git repo? If this is the case
then I am happy to fix this manually to lessen the burden on the
contributors.
