It seems like the best response to both that mistake and that situation would have been to have a policy of pulling any error messages (or other text that'll be visible to users) from a resource file. If you made the resource file use a simple enough format, you could just pass the entire thing off to the docs team before each release and let them edit it directly. It'd also make future i18n efforts far simpler.
