Start purchase - pass localized product name string?

For the StartPurchase flow (used for Steam in-app purchases), the information shown by Steam comes from the PlayFab catalog... which is one language only. Is there any way we can get the ability to pass the product name from the client/server/somewhere, so players in other languages will see the localized product names?

(not a problem for iOS, or Android, obviously, as those stores already contain localized product info)

Not currently. We are planning to add localization to the service in a future update, but I'm afraid that we don't have a date we can share for that just yet. To be clear, the Steam implementation uses the Display Name first, then the Description if there's no Display Name. If there's also no Description, the Item ID will be used.
