Steps:
1. Create EJB Module
2. Add New -> JavaObjects -> Customizer
3. DnD button from the palette
4. Select it and choose Bindings from Properties
5. Move cursor through the ist of bindings

All of them have tooltips and description not from pseudo localized bundle file.
I'm running in the Japan locale, using a pseudo localized Netbeans.

Comment 2 Ken Frank 2008-04-28 19:23:26 UTC
since its about missing msg/tooltip and since
the patch fixes are translated, are marking
with the patch 2 status whiteboard words - might
this one be fixed for the patch 2 ?

These texts are not stored in NB bundle files, they are provided by components through property descriptors obtained 
from BeanInfo or from binding infrastructure. See java.beans.PropertyDescriptor.getShortDescription() - this method 
should return localized description (it is up to component vendors to implement it).
Comment 4 Ken Frank 2008-04-30 18:33:08 UTC
are these tooltips/description important enough to have be translatable
so that we might should have somewrapper module that can get and show that information
via bundle files ?

I think but not sure that this has been done in some cases, and am just
asking about it. 

or perhaps its as you mention requirement that component providers
provide us with some translations ? are these providers a jdk or other
sun team ?

> are these tooltips/description important enough to have be translatable?

These descriptions correspond to the descriptions of get<Property> and set<Property> methods in the corresponding 
JavaDoc. As we(=Sun) do not provide translated version of JavaDoc then I believe that it would be an overkill to do 
our own translations in NetBeans.

> I think but not sure that this has been done in some cases, and am just asking about it.

No such attempt has been done in this area, so far.

> are these providers a jdk or other sun team ?

Depends on who is the provider of your components. It can be JDK (for standard Swing components), other sun team (for 
example for SwingX components) or any 3rd party component vendor.
