Thanks for replying so fast!

Yes, I've read that document. Sorry for not having mentioned it.
While we're at it, the document mentions supplying a unit test. Does
that also apply to the kind of contributions we're discussing here?
If so, any hints how such a unit-test might look like (i.e., what
should it test)?

I agree that this situation would be ideal. In reality, however,
translations tend to have omissions -- in the German translation for
JFileChooser, for instance, some items are left untranslated. And
I probably can't cope with single-handedly translating the sheer volume
of .properties floating around the JDK code, much as I'd like to.
So probably I'll just submit a mercurial changeset within the next few
days or so, and then let the maintainers decide what to do with it.
Does that sound right?
Best regards,
Daniel Janus
