I have solved both tasks inclusive the migration of user-installed 
extensions.

As the translation deadline has passed I have made no string changes.

Please provide feedback from your tests once a snapshot build or a 
buildbot build including these changes is available.

Best regards, Oliver.

Unfortunately, my change causes build breaker on Mac OS and Linux.

Root cause:
My try to export a certain function from library deploymentgui.uno 
(module desktop) in order to use it in other libraries of module desktop 
failed under Mac OS and Linux.

I am working on it.
