Hei Michael,

thank you for improving it.
I think it may be better to include it into OJ 1.3.1 / 1.4 - because I 
would like to avoid to add new translation strings to the core now.
Only bug fixing should be done now. However, I don't even find now bugs 
that are fast to do for me (except the selection one). So I personally 
would wait for the translations only and do the OJ 1.3 release as soon 
as possible.

my 2cents - so if you think differently pls. tell me

stefan
