Looking for some early feedback for implementing #2147
There is one bug I can't quite figure out. As shown above, at some point, the industry name seems to be partially freed (almost seems like garbage collection, because when it happens doesn't seem to be entirely deterministic), and eventually, it is fully freed and just points to garbage. It ends up deep in the string formatting, and one of the control characters triggers this code path.
Looking at how for instance the industries list window works, the industry object there is never passed around, only its ID. At point of rendering, then the actual industry is retrieved and the string of it is retrieved. My guess is that I need to do something similar, or simply buffer the industry names locally (since we're not developing for a 8086 anymore) for the duration the window is shown.
