Eduardo,

The problem of the Mac using a different shortcut key and sometimes a
different word for certain commands (eg Quit rather than Exit in English) is
exactly analogous to different languages using different words for the same
concept. Command labels and shortcut definitions are already specified in
messages resources files so using the same mechanism as a way of dealing
with labeling the commands differently on different platforms is a sound
approach I believe. That's probably why Locale has the mechanism in place
for dealing with such platform variants (thanks to Peter for pointing that
out to me)
