a strings references prints the actual value in the XML

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Example: <Button android:text="@strings/okay" ... </Button>

When I save the layout to (for example) main.xml, I notice that the actual 
string text (Ok) and not the reference (@strings/okay) is saved into the XML 
file. (I would like to save the reference from an internationalization or 
maintenance perspective in a separate strings.xml file so that I can more 
easily internationalize or maintain the code.) I initially assumed that, after 
doing so, selecting Open causes the layout file to be opened with the 
@strings/okay reference showing on the button, and then after selecting Load 
string resources, Ok would appear on the button.
