The more fundamental error is assuming that what is in source is
consistently en_US, or any other en_* variant.
It should be. You can look at it the other way around: anything that
gets in the source should consistently be en_US, not just
whatever_lingo_the_developer_had_in_mind.
Are the "sources" mentioned by Jonathon and by
Rimas one thing or two different things?
I would say the "source of translation" should
be only semantically correct, as regarding the
functionality of the entity/activity it refers
to. The en_US is just a translation in this
regard, and activities regading, say, its
typography tradition should be excluded from the
lifecycle of non en_US translations.
That won't change anything w/r to the Help pages
(in which the text itself is the entity), but it
definitely relates to UI strings, which are sort
of a primary step in localisation process.
