Comment (by jscipione):
Thinking about this a bit more, maybe we don't need to change app server
after-all. We simply need to store the untranslated decorator name when
saving to disk, at least for the default decorator.
The idea is to store the path to the decorator to disk, and paths are
typically in English anyway. Since we look for the decorator in four
places (system package, system non-package, user package, user non-
package) we only store the leaf of the decorator path. We can still
translate the "Default" string into your locale before adding the
"Default" menu item to the menu field so that you see the localized
version (e.g. Predeterminado) but we don't store that translated string to
disk. Then app server will see "Default" on disk, and everything should be
happy.
