Language support in MFA

We would like the end-user dialogs in MFA follow the language settings in the client computer. We need multiple languages for the dialogs, at least one more language in addition to English. The text strings should be easy to translate in resource files, or something equivalent.

    In addition to language, the texts used in dialogs seems hardcoded. It would be great if we could change the text. For example, the headline "MFA Out-of-band" is not very easy to understand. What is out-of-band expression referring to exactly? Thanks.
