/**
* An API which allows Marionette to handle localized content.
*
* The localization (https://mzl.la/2eUMjyF) of UI elements in Gecko
* based applications is done via entities and properties. For static
* values entities are used, which are located in .dtd files. Whereby for
* dynamically updated content the values come from .property files. Both
* types of elements can be identifed via a unique id, and the translated
* content retrieved.
