Nothing is really defined in user.entities, other than things specific to 
English docs.  You don't have to keep the local language files an exact copy 
of the original, in fact that would be probably a pretty bad idea.

Things in general.entities should in general, not be considered translateable 
(they are application names, Trademarks etc.), things defined in 
user.entities you can replace, redefine, reuse, or remove from your 
translations, at your leisure.

I am working on writing some up to date instructions for the translators 
handbook (no really, I am!)
