forget those two - I forgot to change my main pageDS.
But now I have a question. What is the suggested way to localize a page
if the desired foreign language needs for some reason a completely
different page-structure? Should in this case a pageTS with
<langDisable>0</langDisable> be provided? Or should a dummy-page be
used? But a dummy-page will also appear in the menu of the default
language - if it is not excluded via conditions and TS - which is not
acceptable.
