Adrian Crum commented on OFBIZ-1425:
------------------------------------

David's comment from OFBIZ-1387:

"If we do something like that, here or anywhere, we should use XML and not 
properties files. XML is about 1E6 times better than properties files 
(name/value pairs) for organizing this sort of information. It is hierarchical 
so much easier to organize and you can use real UTF-8 characters there instead 
of having to encode everything and use a special tool or a translator to work 
on the files."

This patch could be modified to use xml files instead of properties files. I 
just need an example of how to do that.
