Summary: unicode resource bundles

Initial Comment:
Currently, people that use resource bundles to localize
their applications have to use escaped unicode
sequences for non ASCII chars. That's quite horrible
for maintanance. Java 5 partially fixed this:
http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/java/library/j-tiger02254.html
which describes you can now use XML with alt encodings,
though it says that this cannot be used with resource
bundles.

What we can do is implement our own resourcebundle like
lookup mechanism that automatically looks for xml
bundles. Additionally, we could consider a custom
loading mech for normal properties files, e.g. if the
properties file starts with

# encoding: UTF-8

or something like that.


NOTES:
- xml properties files conflict if the markup files are
also defined as xml (Page.getMarkupType returns 'xml').
- I think XML properties files should precede normal
properties files if both a properties and an xml file
is defined for a locale/ var.
