There are two types of linked variant associations: source and target, so we need to keep the name there.
But when cloning a variant and retaining a link as source, we will prefer the general term 'linked variant'. Hopefully this name works well.
The permission is effectively the feature toggle. Users can choose to use it, but shouldn't expect it all to work perfectly yet.
When it's considered full featured, we just need to update the translation. Hm... I hope that's not too painful.🤞
