This is true,
but in our case; fonts just dont cut it. We use gnu gettext for all font
translations but when it comes to the big readable texts we need graphic
files (i.e. we have a pre-cut graphic image of "Select an artist"
and many many more). So far in a specialized UI; gettext and automatic layout
definitly don't make the bleeding edge.

I would definitly prefer this approach, I wonder if we can still make use of
the pixmap engine and assign graphic files to all possible widget states
using this method... this is definitly something to look into.
