Both possibilities we thought about. Using special characters like description.de is a good idea.
Actually in one of our prototypes we have a global array language=(de,en,sp,...) and the properties are arrays where the values have the same order, so we could parse the responsed REST Object into a JSON object, which we could use as a view model object for the GUI. But the properties have most of the time empty fields. ... we are not happy about that.
