I know it can be annoying to localize stuff, but I really don't feel it is as big a deal as some people make it out to be. I'm fully aware that localization can only be efficient when people from different trades work together well.
It is not the technical limits that makes localization tough for many projects - it is the fact that often times the coders and graphic designers never even sat down with the "translators". If people worked together properly, it shouldn't be as hard.
