I see this as a logical evolvement after wine gets broader use.

I agree that different language versions of one application would be kept
together. Thus making language an attribute of a version would help.
For non-english versions, one could then post the ORIGINAL error texts (in the
set language) for debugging.
Furthermore, I often see local distributions of retail software, with some
adjustments.

If the language of a version differs from the language of the parent, it would
be nice if the title in that language could also be stored.
Currently, the only field that could be used is the "description" field.

Still, I'm not sure how to catalog the dutch title "Disney Sneeuwwitje in het
toverboekspel", as 1) I don't know the exact title of the english version and
2) I'd like to keep the title search function.
Ideally, the master record should be the "most used" language (often english),
and versions can be used to distinguish language versions.
