Unless translation in some language of these messages looks similar
to what 'nth-prior' wants to find.  So the answer really is "asking
if somebody parses _these_ messages is pointless" ;-)

I outlined one possible approach to allow translat{able,ed} reflog
messages without breaking 'nth-prior' and would allow us add more
code to mechanically parse them if we wanted to elsewhere in the
thread, by the way.  I do not plan to work on it soon, but without
doing something like that first, letting translated messages
randomly into reflog is asking for trouble, I am afraid.
