RemarksThis class can be used by the plugins to translate strings for their UI.
All methods look for elements whose text contains tags delimited by double-colons. Those tags are replaced with strings whose name matches the text within the double-colon. So for example, a Label whose Text property is "::UserName::" would be subsituted with the content of the UserName string. Only chunks within double-colons are substituted.
