 wp-admin/includes/plugin.php

 Function `get_plugin_data()`

 It is possible to use the value TextDomain in the comments of a plugin to
 set a textdomain for lacalization. It's is not simple to use this value in
 the php-code, only with a own function, she parse this value from the
 plugin and give the value to a constant or var.
 Also it is hard to write translations-files .po /.mo include the string on
 this comment. PoEdit or WP-plugin localization from Heiko Rabe cant read
 this string. Maybe it is possible to change this and parse in
 `get_plugin_data()` for a string to the Value `'TextDomain' => 'Text
 Domain';` than it is possible to write the string in the default fucntions
 `__()` or other and use poEdit or similar.

 The same problem is the value `Domain Path`. He is also a redundant value
 in the code of a plugin or the developer must parse his own comments on
 this section.
