You shouldn't be adopting a markup-oriented approach, but a semantic / 
content oriented one. Seperation of presentation from content is a basic 
principle. If the template currently says:

<h2>Messaging Room</h2>

You should put something like ...

messaging.room=Messaging Room

... in the (English) properties file, and leave behind ...

<h2><localise id="messaging.room" /></h2>

... in the template. Let the template handle the markup / presentation 
concerns.
