[theme-reviewers] Translation Support

[Emil Uzelac]

This is actually pretty straightforward (IMO).

Public-facing: *Theme Created by Author* (front-end) *Theme Options... etc..
* (back-end) examples only.

So if author is including e.g. Theme Options, all that should be in English
too, but also everything else visible to the user.

Localization in this case is not a requirement :)

Thanks,
Emil
