Cool! I've also been known to enquire about this.
When doing this redesign you might want to consider
another strings related problem which is due to come
up shortly and bother us. That is strings for plugins
- they're currently hard-coded in English but soon
they're going to need l10n and we probably don't want
ad-hoc methods for each plugin... scary (:
