hm, I was really hoping that YOU would do this!? 8-)

Come on, I think that LC should NEVER EVER hardcode any english string, n’est-ce pas?
We already have this problem on mobile with:
...
mobilePick "A" & return & "B" & return & "C", 1, "cancelDone"
...
Where we will have the english buttons „Cancel“ and „Done“ even on localized systems. :-/
I already bug-reported that.

Things like this will make our apps look amateurish, as if we forgot the last bit of translation!
