[Cosmo-dev] Stuff in the message resource files

[Matthew Eernisse]

Ah, okay. I'll defer to y'all on what is the common practice in the 
Java-Webapp world.

I was actually a bit on the fence about mentioning that one, since the 
only practical downside I could think of is that it would seem to be 
more copy-paste error prone than programmatically appending/parsing the 
locale tag on some portion of the URI.
