As I told Markus today on irc, this file was "stolen" from shared 
code by SeaMonkey, and we had to make our own copy for Camino, 
mozilla/camino/embed-replacements/locale/en-US/communicator/typeaheadfind.properties

You can look in the l10n repository to see if there are suite/ 
versions of this file for your locale, but be aware we have made some 
changes to our copy.

I looked, and this is unused in Camino (it's related to the tab 
browsing implementation of XUL apps).

This file's situation seems to be a mess, but ultimately it appears 
to be unused (anywhere, not just in Camino).

It looks like the .strings version of the file is just wrong, but as 
Markus and I discovered today, this is one of the files not used by 
Camino.
