I agree with you. Documentation and user-facing interfaces should definitely support I18N. That means Horizon, and (maybe) the Python client bindings. Operators-facing log messages... not so much. By internationalizing them we lose the ability to google for them, and I'm not convinced the trade-off is favorable for that particular population. If you come to the design summit and care about this, join us at the "I18N in OpenStack" session.
