Only a plan. Nothing has been done until now. I think we have three main
issues:
- how to prevent calling getttext before loading it (note: I don't want to put
gettext in the kernel)
- what should be translated (how about error messages?)
- what should be done if a terminal is not capable of displaying most
characters (falling back to original messages? just displaying garbage?)
Technically, it is not hard to implement gettext, but the policy side requires
some more attention.
