Please consider adding the following to the next R release (I understand

Can you or someone else think of a better name? That sounds like it searches www.r-project.org. I think even 'R Sites Search' would be better.

Yes, it is too late: we need lead time for the translators these days.
(RGui has Chinese, German, Italian and Japanese menus available.)

I'd suggest "R help online...".

But, it is not 'help online': it is searching docs and past help.

After the release, I think this should go into R-patched. Do we have tools to tell the translators all the new strings that need translating, or should they be explicitly informed about such a thing?

Yes, msgmerge/msgfmt tells them. The message catalogues change almost daily as people add features.
