Nope. Take a look at the preview widget at the bottom of the paragraph
dialog. When formatting a paragraph with content, that content gets
displayed in really teeny text. These strings are used as sample text
content when there isn't any such content to use.
Anyone concerned about string bloat should submit a patch which does the
repetition in code instead of in the string. ;-)

That's a bug in Owen's script (currently at abi/dumpstrings.pl). He should
be checking both of the strings files, one of which is currently commented
out. Should be an easy fix.
Ditto for missing languages (pt-BR, hu-HU).
However, I'm not sure why the size of the longest string is always 100%,
though. Someone more fluent in Perl will have to figure that one out.
