So how do you solve this problem now for English ":PROPERTIES:"?

Anyway if somebody runs into it he could have at least to options:

1. write local .emacs.d/.org-de-vocabulary which will override the
default one (or parts of it) with a synonym, like:
PROPERTIES -> ATTRIBUTEN
or
PROPERTIES -> ORG_EIGENSCHAFTEN
and then you can replace blindly before parsing.

2. just go back to using English org-vocabulary as it is done now.
