Aaron,

It's not an approach I would endorse. You will find it difficult to
further manage your i18n customizations when you go to upgrade your
DSpace instance. if your utilizing the non-src release, these jars are
drawn from a maven repository, altering them int he installation
location will cause your changes to be lost in the next build, it is
better to make your changes in [dspace-src]/dspace/... and preserve
them in a version control repository like svn so you can replicate
your build process.
