Federico Grilli updated MGNLFORM-76:
------------------------------------

    Description: 
In multi-language environments, when switching from the default language to a 
different one, the user is shown a dialog (see screenshot) with the possibility 
to create a locale specific variant for fields such as {{mandatory}} or {{max 
input length}} which, IMHO, does not make much sense. Furthermore, a field like 
{{fieldName}} in the {{dialogEdit}} is required which makes it necessary to 
specify a value for it. This is rather annoying as one would most likely use 
the default one and instead either needs to type it again or type a variant of 
it. In the latter case, this could cause errors wherever the default value of 
it is referred to (e.g. in confirmation emails. Alternatively, one would need 
to create duplicates [e.g. for freemarker templates] with the locale-specific 
fieldName).
Apparently it was MGNLFORM-63 that added i18n flags to every dialog's control 
even where they where not actually needed.
