Have in mind bug #37461 - in some cases conversion is needed; in some cases it
is not needed to specify that a label is in a specific language.

Think of handling cases of multilingual content. For example, item about the
question mark may well have "?" as the label. Even if some languages would want
to use "question mark" or "Fragezeichen", in other "?" will probably be better
than a foreign language. Another example, ".com". Perhaps MUL code could be
used for this.

Also, there is more complex question of names. For example, "Berlin" means
"Berlin" in a large number of languages, so it seems a waste not to use this
fact. Perhaps a way to specify which language is the "default" language of the
item, so other language could draw from it if possible. In some cases,
additional conversion might be needed.
