Well, in my experience, it's often not as simple as replacing pieces of
text, when translating sites.
Often, different languages have different requirements (ie, French is
almost always longer than the equivalent English text. Some languages
read from right to left, etc). Markup is different in different
languages, as well: paragraphs, capitalization, breaks, indentation,
quoting, are all performed differently.
Admittedly, your "header" example shows how "users" could mess up a
whole language. I think that my DocWeb_Language class, without the
partner DocWeb_Template class is under-powered.
Perhaps we could ignore the "shared" sub directory for all languages but
the default?
