Konrad Windszus updated SLING-12788:
------------------------------------
    Description: 
Currently the 
[basename|https://sling.apache.org/documentation/bundles/internationalization-support-i18n.html#resourcebundle-with-base-names]
 does not allow to define any fallbacks to other basenames. However the 
inheritance given by just the 
[locale|https://sling.apache.org/documentation/bundles/internationalization-support-i18n.html#resourcebundle-hierarchies]
 are not enough.

Example use case is a multi-tenant server where one app uses "keyA" with 
message "A" while the other app uses "keyA" with message "a". Although 
basenames can be used to isolate those against each other it is often 
reasonable to have a default message which is common across all tenants (but 
can be easily overwritten).

Proposal:

Allow to maintain basename hierarchies via OSGi configuration. In that case if 
the key could not be found with the given `basename` for the specific locale it 
would first look it up in the parent basenames before considering super locales.
