Correct, and I also couldn't rely on something like RTTI to iterate or
query widgets on a form, because my widgets are declared private only
(not published).

And yet another alternative, one could use Interfaces too. The Form
implements a "translation interface", and the broadcast mechanism
could simply query each loaded form for the specific interface, and if
found, call the UpdateCaptions method of that interface. This way you
don't need form inheritance, but the end result is similar in each
case.

As always in programming, there are a 101 ways to accomplish the same task. :)
