String Changes on Branches

	I don't think we've ever said anything about this before, but I
think, to make life easy for localizers, we should try to avoid making
string changes on stable branches, as much as possible (that would
currently include the 3.2 branch). Obviously, if something is very
important, we should fix it, but any non-critical string changes should
go on trunk only.

	By "strings" I of course mean "any string that is displayed to
the user and would have to be localized."

	The ideal would be to keep a single localization pack working
from rc1 all the way down the branch.
