I would love to see the option to have an OR and AND
option in the mod format on language files like eg:

<OR edit>
<edit file>
english.lng
</edit file>

english txt defs

<edit file>
dutch.lng
</edit file>

dutch txt defs

<edit file>
german.lng
</edit file>

german txt defs
</OR edit>

This allows a mod writer to have one mod for multiple
languages (without having to goto the cumbersome task
of copying and translating a mod for each language)
Having a mod in multiple language (one mod for each
language) makes updating of the mod code very task
intensive as you need to fix/update code in every mod.
As normally the code remains the same for each
language this would significantly reduce the versions of
mods hanging around, translated or not which would
improve versioning control

    I like the idea although it will make the mod format a lot
    more complex so this is nothing that will happen very soon.
    If we're going todo that then we can also implement more
    complex structures like if ... then ... elseif ... else. Not
    sure how the final tag structure will look like yet though.
