Localization is very basic functionality that should be provided by the
platform itself.
We are in the situation that we are in only because people see Pharo as
something “to build on top”.
This way everyone does their own I18N stuff, while the right thing would be to
have *one* that is good and
part or Pharo itself.
Just think about it: Pharo itself should have translated menus. So we need
*something* in the system anyway.
Why then not make it good and make it the one that everyone is using?
