I find it odd that tr will "destroy" its input string by wrapping it with "??" 
when it cannot find a translation. I think it would be much better to simply 
return the input string. That would allow a working application in the original 
language without any localization, with the possibility to localize the app 
over 
time, even partially.

Wrapping the string with "??" is probably the worst way to signal an error. I 
also think it would be safe to change this behavior, because it's probably 
unlikely that existing code checks for "??" to detect an error, and if there is 
an error, the worst that will happen is that the native language string will be 
used.
