Only if an app depends on this.

That's interesting.  We could probably change the string IDs to match
to get native rsaenh to load.  While we don't necessarily need to
provide compatibility for native rsaenh, it can't hurt.  A patch would
be welcome.

IANAL, but I'll give my opinion based on a limited understanding of
the relevant cases.  It's not okay to copy them, as the strings
themselves are likely copyrighted material.  The IDs, however, are
part of the interface, and may be copied.  So, if all that's needed is
for e.g. IDS_AUTHORITY_KEY_ID to have value 8000, that's fine.  It's
not necessary to copy Microsoft's text to achieve that.
