Hi Daniel,

It is not about fixing things that's inside your domain, it was about adding new concepts for handling translations, which changes how UI scripts have to maintained.

That topic had two aspects:

- The loose custom strings in UI scripts were there temporary, and meant to disappear in due time. 

- The syntax for how users and developers handle UI scripts is something we should together agree on.

Combined it makes this something we should communicate on together to get an agreement on. So Thomas' (or my) issue was not about indivdual commits or fixes, it's about a change in spec and how we want to handle things.
