I noticed this today: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/219768/
And it got me thinking about something I've wondered before - why do we even use _() in python-novaclient? It doesn't have any .po files for babel message translation, it has no babel config, there is nothing in setup.cfg about extracting messages and compiling them into .mo's, there is nothing on Transifex for python-novaclient, etc.
Is there a way to change your locale and get translated output in nova CLIs? I didn't find anything in docs from a quick google search.
Comparing to python-openstackclient, that does have a babel config and some locale po files in tree, at least for de and zh_TW.
So if this doesn't work in python-novaclient, do we need any of the i18n code in there? It doesn't really hurt, but it seems pointless to push changes for it or try to keep user-facing messages in mind in the code.
