Issue 328: Change the "Back button" text
Reported by dianacmc...@gmail.com, Aug 19, 2010
In the desktop application (examples), when a user selects a plugin from the menu and clicks on the button for the window to be in fullscreen, a button appears in the top right corner to go "back" to the main menu. It would be nice if we could change the word of the button, so that it wouldn't have to be always "back", but something else instead. Thank you!

i can see how this is needed e.g. for translation to other languages etc.

not sure how to change this specifically to make it changebale, other than changing it directly in source code.

Maybe we need some way to translate all strings passed to label?
e.g.
german = {'back': 'zuruek'}
pymt_set_translation_dictionary(german)

Label constructor can check if text being passed is in global translation dict, use translation if it is, and use raw string as now if not.

this way user can create dict of all strings he wants to change and set it at start up

maybe gettext is better for this case, and then, we can also use translation tool from launchpad do to translation of other languages.
