Hoi,
The drawbacks are that you make assumptions about languages. Also having
localised names prevents the copying of functionality from one to the
other. So I would not use it, I would show a localised name and its
desctription but store the property identifier. Text in this is a service
not to be relied upon.
Thanks,
