[jbosstools-dev] More i18n questions

[Sean Flanigan]

Do you think it makes sense to translate English text embedded in 
template code?

eg in the examples/ module,
or in a class like 
/org.jboss.tools.ws.creation.core/src/org/jboss/tools/ws/creation/core/commands/ClientSampleCreationCommand.java

It's not difficult to externalize the English text, but I suppose there 
could be a problem if a translator used a non-ASCII character and the 
compiler uses the wrong character set.  Or if the translator chooses a 
variable name which isn't a legal identifier in Java.

Is it worth the trouble (and extra testing)?
