EVALUATION The non-translatable properties like ViewportBackingStore are moved to the system.properties file under the Notepad/resources directory.

EVALUATION We are requested to extract non-translatable resources to a new property file.

EVALUATION This is a bug I don't understand - Notepad.properties contains some resources that can be translated like fileLabel, pasteTooltip etc... and some which can't be translated like ViewportBackingStore=false which controls the Notepad application behavior why should they be removed?
