[TYPO3-core] RFC: #11825: Override FE labels with XML files

[Ernesto Baschny [cron IT]]

Hi Christian,

nice! We always needed such a feature and just last week were talking
about it. Thanks: +1 on reviewing and testing.

Document this in this section:

http://typo3.org/documentation/document-library/core-documentation/doc_core_inside/4.2.0/view/2/8/#id4218935

which is the section that explains how localization files are fetched
and in which order.

About the naming of the variable: $TYPO3_CONF_VARS['XLL'] creates a new
"root level" variable, which will also be seen in "All configuration" of
the install tool. It looks a bit "odd" there, as it cannot really be
edited in any useful manner. So I think we should find another top level
variable to put it into, e.g. TYPO3_CONF_VARS['EXT']['XLL']. And about
"XLL", maybe call it TYPO3_CONF_VARS['EXT']['llXMLoverride'] or
something more "speaking". What do you think?

Cheers,
Ernesto
