It is definitely possible to develop non-English applications using resource bundles. I typically put the Unicode codes (\uxxxx) in the .properties files when developing apps which must support e. g. cyrillic text. This is not as comfortable as it could be, but there are web based converters from non-ASCII text to unicode code sequences. And then: copy & paste.
If you have to deal with a lot of text, it might be worthwhile to look for ResourceBundle extensions capable of real Unicode text.
