To prepare for translation support, this makes all of the widgets
cognizant of the language change event that occurs whenever
installTranslator() is called and automatically retranslates their text
where necessary.
This is important as calling the backing UI's retranslateUi() is often
not enough, particularly in cases where we add our own strings that
aren't controlled by it. In that case we need to manually refresh the
strings ourselves.
Prevents compiler warnings related to truncation when invoking the
dialog. It's also extremely suspect to use a u8 value here instead of a
more general type to begin with.
