As I understand it the name and javadoc were incorrect.  Eclipse always 
returns the translated value.

You want the "%command.BuildAuto.name" string?  It looks like an 
IConfigurationElement for the IExtenionRegistry will always return 
translated attributes (for any attributes that were translated).
