translate_user_role only working in admin

[keraweb]

The user role translations are only available in the admin.
I'd like to see them available in the front-end aswell.

This is not working:

if ( ! is_admin() ) {
        load_textdomain( 'default', WP_LANG_DIR . '/admin-' . get_locale() . '.mo' );
}

To make them available on the front end we have to put the user roles into a /wp-includes file.

[keraweb]

Not only that.
The default .mo files for the front-end doesn't contain the role translations at all.

Found a workaround:

add_action( 'init', 'load_admin_textdomain_in_front' )
function load_admin_textdomain_in_front() {
    if ( ! is_admin() ) {
        load_textdomain( 'default', WP_LANG_DIR . '/admin-' . get_locale() . '.mo' );
    }
}

Replying to keraweb:

That's why we have to move them. :)

Why not simply within the translate_user_role function?
Seems like the most logical location to me.

EDIT: Nevermind, then this would be executed with every call.. Maybe outside this function?

Locale role gettext calls right below translate_user_role() in l10n.php

37539.2.diff​ moves the strings to /wp-includes/capabilities.php.

In 44976:

I18N: Move the strings for default user roles to wp-includes/capabilities.php, to make the translations available on the front end as well.

Props keraweb, ocean90.
Fixes #37539.
