Description
It should be possible to easily add localizations for any language, for example, controls_fi_FI.properties for Finnish, to localize the built-in JavaFx Controls.

Currently, this is NOT easy or in any way practical, unless I am missing something.

Comments
This might be an issue with every localized string in JavaFX, not just Controls. How does Swing solve this problem?
