The reason is the unicode version of the dialog. In Unicode, you may 
need to display several "character sets" simultaniously. When that 
happens, you don't want to repeat the AaBb string over and over.

As for the strings themselves - they are 100% language independant, as 
far as I can tell. After all, they don't spell a word in any language 
that I actually speak (Arabic may be an exception here, as may 
Japanese). Even when they, do, it's a word in that language.

I failed to understand how you wanted to make it into a resource.
