I got an e-mail reply from Srl295 last monday who asked for permission to forward the note on to the CLDR technical committee, which I granted.

A rough sketch for the technical part as I currently see it:
 * We could use locales provided in the Local Description Markup Language LDML, an XML format designed by CLDR, to extract a set of key => value pairs per locale, which obviously can be imported into its own namespace in, possibly including limited amounts of message documentation.
 * The inverse process could be used to generate files with suggestions of additions and updates to be provided to CLDR.
 * Other types of export formats are possible of course as well.
 * While this scheme could transport all possible locale items, we do not have to support them all.
 * I can do the necessary coding.
