Okay, another suggestion which you may have (and probably have) already thought of is extensive comments in UIFILEs (such as a description of what the current UIFILE is for at the top, what each element corresponds to in WLM, etc.) so that users can easily track down what they're looking for.

Yeah I have the final product already in my head and I sort of forget that people can't see that :P

I was giving that a lot of thought as to how I am going to structure the comments in the skin not just for english users, but for the non-english languages.

What I had planned was to have an an index at the start of the xml which shows what sections are in the xml and that way if people want to jump to one specific part they just hit CTRL+F and find the specific heading defined in the index section.

If people have any suggestions I'd like to hear it.

I can see the file being overwhelmed by comments if I do in fact implement multi-language comments, so what I have thought of is to include multiple skin info files, one per language.
