-------------------------------------------------------------
To make what I'm proposing clearer, I can use a simple example.
An OFBiz developer wants to create a UI label for the word "second" and creates
a UI label with the key "CommonSecond". In English, the word "second" has two
meanings: ordinal and temporal (after first, and 1/60th of a minute). Since
only one UI label exists, it is used for both meanings. But in other languages,
they might be different words - so they require different UI label keys. A
better approach would be to have two UI label keys: "CommonSecondOrdinal" and
"CommonSecondTemporal". Both keys would be translated to English as "second" -
but other languages would be free to use different words.
