[OpenLayers-Dev] Is there an OL application which demonstrates the context in which the OL translations are used?

Thanks for the offer to help with translation.

We currently use a global dictionary for translation (as you have seen) 
instead of a dictionary per class (or otherwise).  The easiest way to 
see where specific keys are used is probably to search the lib for 
"OpenLayers.i18n".

Others may have other suggestions.
