I’ve created a custom attribute named 'preferred-role' in my Keycloak User Profile configuration.
I’d like to provide localized labels for this attribute so that it shows up in different languages, both in the admin console and on the login/registration forms.

How to do it?

Note: when localization is enabled, the user profile Create attribute form has a modal to customize the Display name:

Modal:

Used setup:

Keycloak: v26.2.4
Localization enabled in realm
Admin theme: keycloak.v2
Account theme: keycloak.v3
