+fix(console): the standalone `/forms/:name` route shows select option labels in the language the user chose
+
+Clause-②: no
+Metadata-protocol: none
+
+- **Before.** A user whose chosen language differed from the browser's (a zh-CN user on an en-US browser) saw the form's field labels in their language and every select option in the browser's. The route read the form view, the object schema and the record with a bare `fetch`, so the server localized the schema, option labels included, by the browser's `Accept-Language`.
+- **Now.** The internal form route (`/forms/:name` and `/apps/:appName/forms/:name`) sends its API requests through the console's authenticated fetch, the same channel the in-app record form (`?form=ID`) reads the object schema over. That fetch sends the session's language as `Accept-Language`, so the server answers option labels in the language the user chose. An option the translation bundle does not cover keeps its authored label. No second translator is added.
+- **Unchanged.** The public anonymous form `/f/:slug` keeps its bare `fetch`.

+/**
+ * objectstack#26452 — the standalone internal form route (`/forms/:name`)
+ * renders select option labels in the session's language, by the SAME path
+ * the in-app overlay form (`?form=ID`) takes.
+ *
+ * ## How the overlay gets translated options
+ *
+ * The overlay is `ModalForm` → `ObjectForm`, whose field builder
+ * (`fromObjectSchema` in `@object-ui/plugin-form`) hands `field.options` to
+ * the widget untouched. The translation happened one step earlier, on the
+ * server: the object schema is read over the host's authenticated fetch
+ * (`createAuthenticatedFetch`, published to the renderers as
+ * `SchemaRendererContext.apiFetch`), which stamps `Accept-Language` with the
+ * session's UI language (`<html lang>`), and the server localizes the schema —
+ * option labels included — in that language.
+ *
+ * ## The defect
+ *
+ * `FormPage` read `/meta/object` with a bare `fetch`, so the request carried
+ * whatever language the BROWSER sends, never the one the user chose. A zh-CN
+ * user on an en-US browser got field labels in Chinese (those resolve
+ * client-side through the bundle) over English options.
+ *
+ * ## What this file holds
+ *
+ * The host fetch below is the REAL `createAuthenticatedFetch` the console
+ * mounts, and the stubbed server localizes by the `Accept-Language` it
+ * receives — the documented behaviour of the live one, where a zh-CN browser
+ * already got Chinese options on this route. The user's choice (`zh-CN`) is
+ * set on `<html lang>`, as the i18n provider does; the "browser" sends no
+ * header at all, which the server answers in English.
+ *
+ * Red before the fix: the route ignored the host fetch, so no request carried
+ * `zh-CN` and every combobox read English.
