Description
There are some non-translatable resources in jdk/src/share/demo/jfc/Notepad/resources/Notepad.properties file. 
When translated, they cause NPE.

EVALUATION

The non-translatable properties like ViewportBackingStore are moved to the system.properties file under the Notepad/resources directory.

We are requested to extract non-translatable resources to a new property file.

This is a bug I don't understand - 

Notepad.properties contains some resources that can be translated
like fileLabel, pasteTooltip etc...

and some which can't be translated 
like ViewportBackingStore=false
which controls the Notepad application behavior

why should they be removed?
