You are referring to this correct?[1]  Maybe I'm misunderstanding this
documentation but the localized strings are stored in the host HTML
file.  It is storing both the keys and the values in the file.
Therefore wouldn't this require a another compilation of the war to
include the alternate locale host html file?  Also wouldn't this
change how consumers use the application?  If the html host file was
Foo.html, they would have to navigate to Foo_fr.html, Foo_de.html,
etc, correct?

I just want to make sure I understand all of the maintenance concerns
down the road.

Thanks for your help,
Micah
