"Localize DropDown" component + TMP_Dropdown? was created by mpeddicord

I'm using TextMeshPro for my fonts, and I have a TextMeshPro dropdown, and I can't figure out how to localize the dropdown elements.
I found a component called "Localize DropDown". That doesn't appear to do a damn thing. I tried searching these forums and the web for how Localize DropDown is intended to be used but came up empty.

Is there no support for TextMeshPro dropdowns?
Does Localize DropDown not work?
If there a more correct way to localize my TextMeshPro dropdowns?

Thanks

Edit: I'm using an old version. v2.7.0 f1
I've resisted updating because I don't know what the fallout might be from something like that. If that's the problem right there. Perhaps some knowledge of how much pain a version update might be.

Edit 2: I updated to v2.8.0 f3. Still no joy.

Hi,
Up to 2.8.0 LocalizeDropdown only localizes Unity UI dropdowns. That component was created at a time where Textmeshpro didn't have a custom dropdown.

Seeing that this is a needed feature, I just modified the LocalizeDropdown to localize both the Unity UI and the TextMeshPro dropdown.
You can download this change from the beta folder (version 2.8.1 b1)

I also modified the TextMeshPro example scene to show a localized dropdown.
