I have some code that does that (Swift 2 version:
<https://gist.github.com/brentdax/79fa038c0af0cafb52dd>), but it relies on the
ExpressibleByStringInterpolation protocol, which is currently deprecated
because it's due for a redesign.
Ultimately, localization is a Foundation-level concern. I'd love to see a
future Foundation do something clever with NSLocalizedString, but it seems like
their hands have been full with higher-priority stuff like the value-type
equivalents.
