The boilerplate has to go somewhere, and abstracting things like this out doesn't change that. On the other hand, if you have to l10n your app, then this works. What about turning it off by default, and turned on in Boot though. Also it should probably use the existing method by default, rolling to the property file if it's turned on and it's not provided. > > So I was thinking that it would be an idea to add a > MapperRules.nameToDisplayName such as this > > var nameToDisplayName: ( Mapper[_], String) = (_,name) => name > A department of redundancy department approved name? :) *LOL* How about displayNameFromPropertyFile?
