 Such things are very bad for i18n - generating translatable strings on a
 fly.

 {{{
 if ( 'delete-group' == $menu['slug'] ) {
     $title = sprintf( _x( '%s Group', 'Group WP Admin Bar delete link',
 'buddypress' ), $menu['name'] );
 }
 }}}

 I'm not only talking about this particular example, but the whole
 attitude.
 In German that can be a one word, in Russian - we have tons of forms of
 words ("удалить группу", "удаление группы" etc - which mean the same but
 have different suffixes and endings depending on the context), other
 languages can have the word "Delete" split into several parts, where one
 should be before "Group", another - after it.
