Ability to brand (or localize) arbitrary localizable text strings in a suite app, perhaps by browsing Bundle.properties files used in the base platform and selecting keys to override, or perhaps by searching for specific strings.
Sketch of UI: Demo Suite Modules Demo Module #1 Demo Module #2 Branding Resource Overrides Core org.netbeans.core Bundle.properties *Branding* and/or *Resource Overrides* may have context menu items: Prepare Basic Branding... Launches a wizard which would let the user provide some basic information about their application - e.g. title, vendor, logo icons - and would then create a basic set of branded override resources to handle the most common requirements. For example, the main window title would be renamed according to the application's title. It would also be feasible to include these wizard panels at the end of the *New Module Suite Project* wizard if the developer indicates an immediate desire to make a branded application. Override Text Strings... Would open some kind of wizard or nonmodal dialog letting the developer browse textual resource bundles present in the platform and override selected keys with their own choices. Should permit both browsing of bundles by name (e.g. org.netbeans.modules.java.Bundle with keys like LBL_something), and searching for particular substrings in the values of all bundles.
