The language does put a limitation as it does not provide a way to
show the identifiers in a neutral way. For example ACI 4D (for those
who knows it) did it in the right way. All functions are localized, I
can choose the language I want I will be able to read the identifiers.
But I doubt we will ever do that in PHP :)
