So many unrelated changes..

How to enable the feature? I built Squirrel using the patch, somehow the Squirrel input method entry didn't show up for me under Cantonese.

For me, it works exactly like the ones for zh-Hant and zh-Hans. Reboot needed though.

Indeed. It's available after logging out and back in.

Next, I need to change the labels a bit so that the three input method entries can be easily differentiated.

True. I suspect that some changes are more than necessary to implement the feature.

Only a few changes on zh-Hant and zh-Hans localisations are not exactly related. All others are definitely related. A Cantonese (yue-Hant) input method should have a yue-Hant (falls back to zh-HK) interface.

I'm not saying your addition of a HK localization, you have more than that

Maybe Cantonese could be 鼠鬚筆

A few phrases were changed according to Mac's system glossary. But there aren't many of them

What names are best suited? What about the following:

Hans Hant Cant
Squirrel - Simplified 鼠须管 鼠须管 鼠须管
Squirrel - Traditional 鼠鬚管 鼠鬚管 鼠鬚管(繁)
Squirrel - Cantonese 鼠鬚管(粵) 鼠鬚管(粵) 鼠鬚管
