Hoi,
Changing the messages in this way may be good from a performance perspective
it really hurts the usability of our messages. Messages are localised at
translatewiki.net and this is where we do require these messages. When
messages are to have hardcoded strings as you propose you defeat the
objectives of using a set of messages that are universally usable.
In my opinion your proposal has really nasty side effects so my question is
how you want to ensure that we are not working cross purposes.
Thanks,
GerardM
