[widgets] i18n proposals document

Hi i18n WG Members,
As Web Apps has been struggling a bit to come to consensus on a
coherent i18n model for widgets, we've prepared a document that
attempts to map out a complete internationalization model for the
Widgets 1.0: Packaging and Configuration specification:

http://dev.w3.org/2006/waf/widgets/i18n.html

The purpose of the document is to tease out the complexities of an
i18n model for widgets and to make a number of proposals that together
form a complete i18n solution. The Web Apps WG would like to solicit
some expertise from the i18n Working Group in getting this right.

The document is a work in progress an should be considered an early
draft (it basically just contains a bunch of strawperson proposals). I
will continue attempting to improve document over the next few days,
but please feel free to start sending feedback if you have any. Our
intention is to decide what the best proposals are and integrate them
into the Widgets 1.0 Packaging spec. I18n is basically the most
significant issues blocking our spec from going to Second Last Call.
We would really appreciate any thoughts or comments the i18n community
might have (by the 23 of April if at all possible).

Kind regards,
Marcos
