That's trivial. I'm more concerned about ``doing it right'', especially as
I've heard, there are people dealing with i8n already ;)

Hmm, what formats would need ``localization''?

Just an idea: What about a product, that replaces the formats to be
localized with a special version. This version would then decide based on
Acquisition on a "country" property, which version to display. This way, a
product like Confera would automagically display date values correctly for
the given area of a website.

Hmmm, I think I know what you mean. You want to make sure, that if you
display /some/path, then the entry of /some/path in the tree is opened,
and not folder. But sorry, I admit, I don't know how to do it :(
