Hey Dmitry,

yep, so I think we got this wrong. :) I'm not particularly against 
reforming the List-Module but I noticed that we have these user-specific 
options there and on other BE pages as well, and so the user-setup 
becomes pretty useless for most of my installations. My suggestions was 
that before we start adding TSconfig options for all the checkboxes on 
each page, we should start thinking about how we could consolidate these 
buttons in a more streamlined way. Because you know: Once we add a 
TSconfig it's hard to remove it again.

So hey, yeah, if we need the localization button there, we can keep it 
there, no big deal. Maybe the HCI comes up with a better idea to make 
localization really easy to use, who knows...


greetings,
benni.
