New description:

 Review the Maestro codebase for localization related issues:

  * Mark lines containing unlocalizable string literals with //NOXLATE,
 making future localizable string hunting easier.
  * Move localizable string literals into their respective resx file
  * Where possible, externalize frequently used string literals into a
 string constant of a StringConstants utility class.
  * Refactor out any format strings with locale-specific information. (eg.
 Coordinate position)
  * Move strings in Resources.resx into a separate Strings.resx resource,
 to make such items easier to distinguish during the localization process
  * Refactor the file picker filter strings to the form {{{
 {0}(*.{1})|*.{1} }}}, where {0} is the locale-specific file type and {1}
 is the extension.
