In file "Mozilla folder:Plug-ins:Default Plug-in", there are some hardcoded strings in the resource fork:
   STR 128, 129, 130, 131, 132
   STR# 126, 127, 128
These should move to language pack.
Plus, those strings are not localizable. After I use ResEdit to change the 
strings to Japanese, it does always show garbled characters on the browser, 
whatever charset I set from the View/Charset menu.
Confirming, I think. Adding l12y keyword and assigning to Localization component.

Actually those strings are all hardcoded in other platforms as well, for 
example, in npnul32.dll for Win32. We should make same set strings for all 
platforms and put it into language pack. I believe we have bugs for other 
platforms already.
