Right - I only found a .properties file in my project's extras folder if the "-soyc" compiler option had been added or if I explicitly specified the extra directory location using "-extra". Without either of these explicit compile time parameters I get *no* properties file.
Also beware of the generateFilename attribute. Yes a different properties file is _generated_, but the associated Message interface does not use it so you still have to rename the properties file back to the default naming convention and place a copy located in the same location as the .ui.xml in order for it to be picked up at _runtime_. I finally have some UiBinder code using i18n but it needed a frustrating mix of guesswork and picking through generated assets to get there - hopefully the documentation will be amended soon.
