Actually it's used to show a sample in the font picker (e.g. with
wordpad do Format > Font).
I translated it in French using most common/representative French
characters (including accentuated letters).

I wouldn't remove it, but rather add a message context clarifying what
its purpose is.

If the sample text does not depend on the dialogue language, that's
what should be done instead IMHO
