I don't mind the cleanup, but I dislike the fact that you break things.
The reason I did the stupid hackish thing with the translations for the
hemispheres was that I needed them to be in the correct class. For some
reason if they were not part of MainTab the correct translations were
not picked up and parsing of local language hemisphere letters was
broken.

I'll take the ones that I like and ignore the others...
