#120: Layout localization doesn't work as expected

Suppose there is application.tpl file which contains some permanent
words/links, eg 'About Us'. Suppose there are 2 controllers/views a and b.
When AK_AUTOMATICALLY_UPDATE_LANGUAGE_FILES is set to true (default
value), both app/locales/a/ru.php and app/locales/b/ru.php do contain the
copy of 'About Us'. So instead of translating once these static words, I
must translate them for each controller. Translations in
app/locales/layout/ru.php are completely ignored if I don't miss enything.

To work around this problem, I've disabled
AK_AUTOMATICALLY_UPDATE_LANGUAGE_FILES and patched Ak.php in the following
way:

Changes (by bermi):

* milestone: 1.0.1 => 1.3.0

Comment:

Akelos now supports namespaces for translations. It should be investigated
how translations on layouts behave if no namespace is provided.
