Object available via {EL_MODULE_DEFERRED_LOCALE}.Locale that allows strings in descendants of EL_MODULE_DEFERRED_LOCALE to be optionally localized at an application level by including class EL_MODULE_LOCALE from the i18n.ecf library. By default translation returns the key as a ZSTRING

Localized strings are referred to using the shorthand syntax:

Locale * "<text>"

Originally this class was introduced to prevent circular library dependencies.
