Locale specific files is the conventional way of dealing with
localization, but Emacs is extensible, which means that we need to
come up with a design that is also extensible. Very few applications
have dynamic menus the way that Emacs does, mostly they are static and
defined in resource files where such conventional localization is
simple.
