Why don't built-in plugins include language phrases?

Question

I was checking the built-in plugins in the latest version of Question2Answer (v1.8.1) and I noticed there are some hard-coded phrases in there.

The documentation describes how to make plugins localization-friendly so I wonder why localization is not included for these plugins.

Comments

Do you have some examples? Most I think use the core language files.

Yes, here are some of them: https://github.com/q2a/question2answer/blob/04fd4dc4dc74d477ba1cb9c52b22f07309f0d9fe/qa-plugin/event-logger/qa-event-logger.php#L105

@jair Wait a second... you mentioned there might be a missing feature and, once confirmed it is missing and that it could be improved, you developed it and shared it with the community? You deserve https://imgur.com/a/izd68MJ

Oh thank you @pupi1985, I'm glad it was helpful :-)

Oops, I was looking at the ones in qa-include/plugins/ and not qa-plugin/

Yes I see what you mean. Looks like most of the options in those plugins don't use language files. Those plugins were first created before the plugin localization feature was added, so I guess it's just an oversight. I'll look at fixing that.
