I know people have different preferences.  I would whine if the strings
were near to perfect (I've to translate some of them) and I believe I've
found one cause for the trouble.  Needless to say that most of the
strings _are_ okay but the remaining 10% (?) are causing 90% of the
woring load (as usual).

Sure.

Learn to tolerate exceptions ;)  I use a pleasant bright blue as the
color for strings (yes, I know, some people don't use colors at all).

No, it was polite (enough).  I can stand some flames, BTW ;)
