Yeah it's valuable, but I'm just optimizing this for the time I can spent on it, I already have a patch series that has these things. It's much easier if I can:
1. Apply C translations 2. Apply Shell translations 3. Apply Translation documentation / po/* stuff
Then later:
4. Add actual gettext support
But not have to deal with bits of #3 while I do #1 and #2. That's all.
Since hopefully we'll get to #3 relatively quickly I think that's OK.
