Motivation
To maintain compatibility with Plone 2.1.x, PFG 1.0 has used self.translate(msgid, domain, default) for various display lists and other strings in python source. This works well in Plone 2.5, but only returns iso-8859-1 content in Plone 2.5.
Proposal
Dispense with 2.1.x compatibility and use Zope 3 style message id's as advocated in Plone PLIP #108.
Risks
Loss of 2.1.x compatibility. A 2.1.x compatible version will need to be maintained in a branch, and will probably have a frozen feature set.
