It seems to me that once a form is localized, you should be able to
re-create it based purely on what's in the resource files alone (not
including any non-localized customization by the developer as noted).


I don't follow this logic. The express purpose of the resx file is not to
provide a full description of the form's design but rather to provide
description of those aspects of a form's design that could change between
languages, etc. I don't understand how you can be critical of something for
being incomplete in a purpose for which it is not intended (for "not
including any non-localized customization").

I'm not meaning to argue for its own sake, I truly just am puzzled by your
statements.

Can I use a semi tractor/trailer to go get McDonald's? Yes, with some
special effort and some limitations. Should I criticize a semi
tractor/trailer for not fitting in the drive-in window? No, of course not.
