don't like getText() vs getMessage(). i suppose that is going to confuse 
developers, because actually there is no difference between text and Message 
here.

we have the rare chance of breaking backward compatibility with OJ2 let's take 
advantage of it as we will have to touch every extension anyway!

let me propose something logically more sound, even if it'll be a little bit 
more work for us

static (we could hide these, but i don't see why. when first argument is null 
the default resourcebundles are used)
get(File,String,Object...objects)
get(String,String,Object...objects)

instance
get(String,Object...objects) //this notation includes get(String) without 
objects as well

this'll allow for OJ Core
I18N.getInstance().get(String)

for instances
I18N.getInstance("my.great.extension").get(String)
or
I18N i18n = I18N.getInstance("my.great.extension");
i18n.get(String)
i18n.get(String, Object, Object)
i18n.get(String, new Object[]{ o1, o2, o3})

** [bugs:#501] I18N from extension**

**Status:** open
**Milestone:** undecided

Ede, I prefer to document the usage of I18N in Extension in a separate ticket.
Here are two reasons which drove me to use a hack instead of the I18N class 
(indeed there is a third : I have been too lazy to try to fix the two former 
reasons) :
- using categoryPrefixOrPath with properties files in the classpath means files 
are in a subdirectory named language/jump (generally possible, but no much 
reason to be constrained like that);
- the only public method you can use to get a key in this case is  
getText(final String categoryPrefix, final String key). Currently, 
getMessage(final Object categoryPrefixOrPathOrI18n,
      final String label, final Object... objects) is private. Not sure if we 
must make it public or if we must use I18N instances in extensions instead of 
static methods. A class instance could avoid repeating the 
categoryPrefixOrPathOrI18n parameter again and again).
- indeed, we can create an instance of I18 for a particular extension, but we 
cannot really use it as most methods are static. For example, if I create an 
instance for myExtension, calling getMessage(final String label, final 
Object... objects) will not search keys in myExtension but in main openjump 
properties file
