Yes, a very good reason, I don't want to be scalped by translators :)

It would make every single message that says &killustrator; fuzzy (or 
untranslated, I'm not sure), and will be no different (the effect on the 
generated text will be exactly the same).  That's an awful lot of messages, 
as Kontour is mentioned in quite a few docs, including most of the major 
"general" texts, such as the user guide, as well as the numerous mentions in 
the koffice documentation.

That's why I wasn't planning to change them until after the release.
