Sorry I have to disagree with this. The content you have added is correct but it belongs in documentation off site and not in a tooltip or on a web page. We dont have such detailed text for everything else which covers all possible explanations and scenarios.

This one is extremely important. Please compare with former one which was wrong.

PLG_SYSTEM_UPDATENOTIFICATION_LANGUAGE_OVERRIDE_DESC="If you choose Auto (default), the update notification email to Super Users will be in the logged in user's front-end language at the time the plugin is triggered. In multi-language sites this can create confusion: the user's language may be one the Super User receiving the email doesn't speak. By selecting a language here you are forcing the update notification emails to be sent in this specific language."

We could also simplify more this way:

PLG_SYSTEM_UPDATENOTIFICATION_LANGUAGE_OVERRIDE_DESC="If you choose Auto (default), the update notification email to Super Users will be in the site language of the page displayed at the time the plugin is triggered.
On sites where multiple languages are installed (multilingual sites or not): the language of the page loaded may be one the Super User receiving the email doesn't speak. By selecting a language here you are forcing the update notification emails to be sent in this specific language."

What do you think?

How about even simpler

PLG_SYSTEM_UPDATENOTIFICATION_LANGUAGE_OVERRIDE_DESC="If you choose Auto
(default), the update notification email to Super Users will be in the site
language at the time the plugin is triggered.
By selecting a language here you are forcing the update notification emails
to be sent in this specific language."

Your proposal, I think, is missing the necessary explanation of the simple reason why one should choose a specific language instead of Auto on some sites. After all, my last proposal above is only one line more.

Imho, the one Brian proposed is clear enough and simple to understand. To me it would be clear that "the site language at the time the plugin is triggered." may not be my preferred language.

OK, OK... Modification done. Let's get this i.n
