screenshot showing two catalog entries

maybe I'm misunderstanding how to use the new externalize string plugin, but when I tried to use the externalize strings page, it seemed to want to add a catalog definition even if I already had one.  I wasn't sure what to put in the info on the left hand side, so perhaps that is part of the problem?

yes, that was the problem.
I replaced the default proposition
i18n!messages
with 
i18n!orion/navigate/nls/messages  (the existing catalog name)

and it's okay now.

thanks for the tool, by the way!

I'll fix it, but I don't think I'll have time in 0.5

We no longer use this method to external strings.
