i have a .DMG with an alias to Applications as well as the .DMG's own

Applications folder (which is an alias) doesn't localize, even though
there is a .localized file at the address pointed to by the alias (the
actual Applications folder on the computer)...
is localization of folder titles ignored if it's an alias?
I imagine it is, as the alias file has its own name which is
independent of the target's name, and localizing a user-specified name
may have undesirable effects.
A common approach I've seen in disk images is to leave the
Applications folder nameless (well, named with a space or something)
and to graphically indicate the action of dragging the application to
the target folder. Adium's disk image is an excellent example.
