John - thanks
 
Paul - 
SHINDIG-1183 Unsupported Features and 
SHINDIG-1199 OpenSocialI18N...
Touch 2 different sets of files for 2 different reasons. But John's
bigger change spans thoes file sets.
 
Once the larger change (http://codereview.appspot.com/143046
<http://codereview.appspot.com/143046> ) happens, SHINDIG-1183 should be
closed and NOT applied.

Subject: Re: [SHINDIG-1199] OpenSocialI18NGadgetRewriter's creation of
JsLibrary should be consistent with JsFeat


I've just updated it (patch update on codereview forthcoming) to fix
sub-bug #1. I'll merge in Jon's changes re: #2 after committing
(assuming the code review goes well) my  patch.

        Hi John,  Can you see if your new patch handles SHINDIG-1183 as
well?
