[wp-polyglots] Strings that doesn't use the mo file

[Morgan Doocy]

Thanks for spotting these, Sebastian. As far as I know, all strings in 
the WP core (i.e. not in themes) _should_ be marked for localization, 
but some haven't been yet, simply because they've slipped through the 
cracks.

The best place to report these is at Mosquito, the WordPress bug 
tracker:

http://mosquito.wordpress.org/

Just submit a bug report listing all the unlocalized strings you find, 
and the devs will correct them.

In this case, Ryan will probably just see your post and correct them 
directly, but you can submit a bug report anyhow if you want.

If anyone with sharp PHP eyes wants to comb through the entire WP core 
to find the last remaining unlocalized strings and submit the full list 
to Mosquito, I think Ryan would be your bestest friend. ;-)
