Hi.

Personally I don't see anything complicated or wrong about using .rc 
files, but yes, it's a bit painful for a contributor that wants to spend 
some time and discovers that he needs to do some rebuild-n-resize 
iterations to make it look nice. So correct me if I'm wrong - a po file 
could be tested without rebuild, right?

For a problem with adjusting sizes we could find some free resource GUI 
tool I guess that creates a dialog as a IDE form designer, and allows 
for changes made to go directly to rc (with a way to simply switch 
languages of course). If there's a such way to do I don't see any 
problem for a non-coders to make changes.
