	 * This returns a resource message of the internationalized error messages identified by an id. Compared to the
	 * legacy method {@link #getResourceString(int, String, String)} this supports a more detailed identifier. This
	 * makes it easier to ensure extensions don't reuse already defined core errors. It is common sense to add the
	 * extensions namespace identifier as second part of the key, just after error. For example:
	 * error.rmx_web.operator.unusable = This operator {0} is unusable.
	 * 
	 * @param id
	 *            The identifier of the error. "error." will be automatically prepended-
	 * @param key
	 *            The part of the error description that should be shown.
	 * @param deflt
	 *            The default if no resource bundle is available.
