I like the idea!

Remember please for anyone reading: Use positional arguments in
format strings. Otherwise:

        "The '%s' file's size is %d which is wrong"

        translated to

        "El tamaƱo %d es incorrecto para el archivo %s"

will be trouble. Instead please do:

        "The '%1$s' file's size is %2$d which is wrong"

specially for standard library messages. This would be very helpful!
