I also think the feature should go. If you want functionality that's so
difficult to provide when you install as a zip file, the answer is not to
make things more complex, but to not install as zip files.
What about environments like Google App Engine ? I mean, AFAIK using
ZIP files is the *official* solution to meet some quotas &
requirements ... CMIIW anyway ...
I mean, for example: what if someone writes an app containing
resources like message catalogs for i18n, uploads it to GAE using ZIP
files and still wants to use the MO files (i.e. resources) for
translation (i.e. for anything else ...) ... Hmmmm ?
I mentioned yesterday (in the language summit) that we really need to
get all the requirements together before we start any work. I fear that
there are many hidden requirements (or ones that I'm personally not
aware of, at least). I don't know gettext well enough give an answer yet.
