Is that 50% of the non-english users or 50% of the total? That would mean that with just three versions, you would cater for either 62 or 74% of all users. I would think that's enough to make the effort. Maybe not make a localized version of every josm-latest, but at least for official ones. Generally, I'm also in favour of moving things out of the main .jar file if that's possible. I hate bloatware.
