bad luck...
maybe that's a reason not to encode the language in the file name in
future versions. if it were in the metadata, creating multilingual docs
would be as simple as saying lang="de en fr zh" or lang="all"...
dynamic content will always be somewhat orthogonal to lenya's document
handling, but it would be nice if one could use i18n based on the
i18ntransformer and catalog files in arbitrary document types.
