A translation service might very well be defined on top of the
essential XML structure, with XPath expressions being used to
identify the items that are subject to translation, either content
or attribute values. Another approach is to add markup to the basic
document (e.g.
http://wiki.zope.org/zope3/ZPTInternationalizationSupport).
Yes, this is a good approach, and that which the W3C
Internationalization Tag Set working group took in its
recommnedation: http://www.w3.org/TR/its/.
Perhaps an XML centered user list is a better forum for this
discussion.
Or an internationalization or language centered list. But in any
case, I agree it does not belong here any more (if it ever did),
so I will stop posting about this here.
