<value> enumerations and defaults in the XForms model are mixing data
structure/type with actual displayed data. It makes internationalisation
more difficult. If a model contains such data, then we have to translate it
into all languages that we want to support. I don't have a problem with
<value> and <default> if the value is actually a _key_ for a separate locale
specific resource. We only have to translate the resource and leave the
model as it is.
<model>
<group name="salutionTitle">
<value key="t1"/>
<value key="t2"/>
...
</model
<resource>
<string key="t1">Mr</string>
<string key="t2">Mrs</string>
...
</resource>
<instance>
...
</instance>
