Doing good i18n of Emacs is indeed a very difficult undertaking, since
Emacs's design makes the source code very visible to the end-user, where
i18n would require some "mapping" layer to translate source-code words
to the language used by the user.

This said, I'd welcome an effort to start on this long road.
Handling most of the menus shouldn't be hard, for example.
