That's already possible, but in another way. You need to place a key with
the name of the element in the localization file. Templateone demo does this
for the articles, so check the code of this.

The language neutral way is possible, and it should almost look exactly as
in your example. Hava a look at the examples that come with the b2
distribution (I'm not 100% sure if we did include an example for that in b2,
but b3 will certainly have one).
