Read the story of this bug. I applied this, even I didn't wrote
the code and don't know in detail what's happing in the I18nTransformer.
But Michael showed interest to make it better. The code was unstable
at first, but now it's partly applied, stable (TIA Konstantin)
and everybody learned something.
<http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=7726>

What happend:
I applied -> uups buggy -> Konstantin got curious
-> therefor Michael re-viewed his patch
-> some recursions of the process ;-) -> partly applied and
the party goes on

But we're doing something, or?
