[Zope-CMF] TTW Actions Forthcoming

[Kari-Hans Kommonen]

Thank you, sounds very helpful!

How about multiple languages and other UI customization needs?

Would it be possible to apply the Expression also to the title item - 
so that the title could depend on a function which could select the 
actual text based on a user's chosen language or style or whatever UI 
preference?

...or is there some other future localization strategy that comes to help?
