One question regarding default_language.php. When I add custom strings what will happen do the customized version on upgrade? Will it get replaced by the upgraded default_language.php?
If yes, how to implement customized strings so they won´t get removed on upgrade?

Ok, I will. Just to make clear: This will not be overwritten by upgrades. But I guess it will be overwritten if I reinstall this language plugin oder install a new version of it?
If yes, wouldn´t it be a good idea to make language custumization independet from upgradings? This could be implemented by using a seperate language file (per language) that is only for customizations and therfor never gets overwritten. For example this could be a file custom.php in every language directory. Custom.php is the file to be edited for custom language strings and CB simply includes this file.

Yes.

Only the core default_language file is replaced by installing CB. This is done so CB doesn't error when it's missing its defines. Won't be an issue once we swap all usages to CBTxt based and probably do away with installing a language all together by default so translations will never be overridden.
