In what I found in l10n-module.lisp there was reference to
(FIND-PACKAGE :IT.BESE.UCW.L10N) in :AROUND method updating
YACLML:*URI-TO-PACKAGE*, so I assumed l10n tags should be placed in
separate package; personally, I don't see any reasons why shouldn't
whey be in <ucw: namespace.  I just followed incomplete solution,
without giving it much thought.

I agree; however, for content, yaclml tags take multiple values
(&REST).  It's clear how it corresponds to code in Lisp (<:FOO ...)
code, but I couldn't figure out if and how Yaclml splits TAL XML tag
body into body arguments for tag macro.  OTOH when localizing, this
body won't be a long string like a paragraph of text but just symbol
name to look up in resource bundle, so this might be a non-issue.  If
your code works, I'm OK with it.

It's OK, more elegant than my quick solution.  Feel free to push it.

Will you push it only to ucw_ajax, or also to ucw_dev?

Greets,
