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

[Ernesto Baschny [cron IT]]

Hi Christian,

perfect! I would say go ahead with it. Documentation with example is
also very good. A hint in "Frontend Localization Guide" is also very
useful because that is probably used by most "FE-developers", which are
probably the ones that have the most benefit from this patch, while
"Inside TYPO3" is more for "core / extension developers".

Cheers,
Ernesto
