There is not much things to localize in this module, so it is properly localized.
But it is good to note that the module adds <api name="BrandingSupport" category="official" group="property"type="export"url="@org-openide-util@/org/openide/util/NbBundle.html">
which is similar to localization but also supports changes of resorces
for application build on top of NetBeans. This is handled by our
