[cas-dev] customize i18n bundles

[Scott Battaglia]

Pascal,

I was looking at the documentation for the Spring 
ResourceBundleMessageSource.  In the current CAS distribution, we use 
the "basename" property.  However, there is a "basenames" property we 
can use instead to specify multiple file names (and it even has the 
effect of over-riding previous values so one can update certain values 
and not touch others).  If we were able to use this in combination with 
a localplugins/webapp folder I think that might solve the problem (well 
even in the short term, people could place the files in 
webapp/WEB-INF/classes and it would probably work).

The only thing I'm not sure of is what happens if you specify two file 
names in the "basenames" and one doesn't exist (but we could work around 
that with dummy files).

Also, I opened a JIRA issue and fixed the spelling error you reported.  
Thanks!
