Quick question, for #OpenZFS users and devs both: is there interest in having the OpenZFS tools translated to languages other than English?

Pros: it's always nice to use your computer in your native language
Cons: need people to do the translations, extra code complexity, slower, harder to test, etc

My actual reason for asking is that I notice we call `gettext()` for most of our output strings right now, but we do not have any message catalogs (and I didn't quickly see any in illumos either). So we're already paying some (small) maintenance cost, for no gain.

I could remove them, or I could set up the translation infrastructure. What's the better choice at this moment in time? (obviously, we can add it all back in the future if we want).
