I still belive my suggestion is better


  • text is split between database and non-database files - all my text is in a single file, one file per language.
    Wrong. You could have everything in the database. Radicore programmers wouldn't have to deal with files. All metadata would be stored in the database.
  • it would require a separate I/O operation to retrieve each piece of text - my method has a single I/O operation to retrieve ALL text.
    Solved with a cache system.
  • getting somebody to translate the text into a different language would require creating a new database record for each piece of text - my method has all the text for a single language in a single file.
    Exactly. But an export and import procedure wouldn't be difficult to implement. Updates of any label would require just an update in the database



Your method: User has to deal with files. Updates introduce a ftp download, file editing and upload just to change a simple label or text. My method doesn't.
