Actually not all users should be able to have their own language, some users with a specific role should be able to translate the application.
If that is possible inline that is fine, but I was thinking more like having a seperate page where a user is presented with all language strings and fields where he can fill in the translated value. After some research I'm thinking maybe we should use the gwt dynamic translations (somewhat like you mention mars1412), but this implies that all language strings of the application should be transferred all at once and then will be stored as a javascript variable on the client. It's not such a disaster, but it would be nice to prevent having to load all language strings at once. OT: And as for static translation, I'm not too impressed with how that works anyway, it should have been much simpler. I'm happy to hear any suggestions/ideas.
