This issue causes another problem - It is not possible to set up textid for a label in ListItemTemplate. Example:

   var win = Ti.UI.createWindow({backgroundColor: 'white'});
   
   var myTemplate = {
       childTemplates: [
           {
               type: 'Ti.UI.Label',
               bindId: 'info',
               properties: {
                   color: 'black',
                   font: { fontFamily:'Arial', fontSize: '20dp', fontWeight:'bold' }
               }
           }
       ]
   };
   
   var listView = Ti.UI.createListView({
       templates: { 'template': myTemplate },
       defaultItemTemplate: 'template'
   });
   
   var sections = [];
   
   var fruitSection = Ti.UI.createListSection({ headerTitle: 'Fruits / Frutas'});
   var fruitDataSet = [
       { info: {text: 'Apple'}}, // No problem
       { info: {textid: 'apple'}} // Will not show any title
   ];
   
   fruitSection.setItems(fruitDataSet);
   sections.push(fruitSection);
   
   listView.setSections(sections);
   
   win.add(listView);
   win.open();

Especially annoying in Alloy View when instead of textid="xxx" must be used text="L(xxx)".
