Actually not many software other than wget can benefit this way. Other
software needs to have ALL_LINGUAS changed if any new translation is
added. Wget is using a combination of ls and sed for ALL_LINGUAS, but that
doesn't work trivially with all other software I tested.

For separating translation as another tarball, there's another risk of
people putting different versions of source and translation together, not
to mention the additional time needed for packaging. But of course it's up
to developers to decide which method costs less and which costs more.
