Hi Tom & Dirk,
why the need for LSS? Is it juts going to be a thin layer (without extra
functionality) on top of the current
anIEclipseContext.set(TranslationService.LOCALE, "en_US")?
If yes, then it certainly makes sense to use variant a) to hide IEC from
consumer API. OTOH I'm skeptical that IEC can be hidden from consumer
API generally and will simply leak into consumer code because it is
neither internal nor marked @noreference.
