Hmm, interesting idea... We could extend the msg catalog compiler to look at the filename for the "default" implied language if the message ids are not suffixed... But if we do that, we probably should use "." as separator so that: foobar.catalog → language is C if not explicitly suffixed in the file foobar.de_DE.catalog → language is de_DE if not explicitly suffixed in the file and so on. That should be a good solution for your usecase, right?
