-----------------------------+-------------------------
 At the current state , loading a text domain is done by the plugin/theme
 author , and leaves no control to the user / other devs to intervene with
 this process. we are left to the mercy and good will of the original
 author .

 It would be a good thing to create some HOOK or ACTION that will allow a
 user to override this somehow.

 At the very least (and maybe it should be a different ticket) a function
 that will return all available $domain names and paths should be made
 available (currently no way of retrieving that but parsing the $i18n
 global)

 Example : If a user need a  plugin/ theme that does not have a translation
 for my desired language , or a BAD translation (or no translation at all)
 the user then creates it´s OWN translation, and by dropping it inside wp-
 content/languages folder , that translation will be loaded instead of the
 one supplied (or not supplied ) with the original plugin / theme .

 Current state : If a user loads a translation to the original plugin
 folder for translations, it will be deleted upon first update .
