I don't know if "de" doc contains "shape"/sheets documentation, but I ported 
the man page into the english one in 2008 ^^

So, internationalization is done in the " sheet" file, not the "shape" one.

Internationalization works from "C" locale to any language, even en_US.

Look at a "sheet" such as Assorted.sheet , each object shape is linked with 
"name" tag (in english/C), then you'll find a list of <description> tags, with 
all followings but C with an, eg xml:lang="fr" parameter fixing language 
(that's part of xml 1.1 standard, see xml namespace).

Even if the "name" tag (in "shape" file, repeated as is in the sheet file) 
should contain only ASCII printables characters in order to work (I didn't 
test), that would probably not be a bug (eg, because collation and other C 
locales would be out of scope outside ascii, where DE.utf8 works / that's just 
an expectation).


Hope that will help / sorry for that terrible English


Regards,
Tsfh
