I should have clarified that I am not talking about the mediawiki.org site but the software component.

Yes, the commonly-used form of LC which operates on nearly-parsed wikitext is bad for most usages other than HTML documents. Yet this does not rule out the possibility of using a more constrained interface[1] like a "dumb" LC (e.g. translate($text, $variant)), with a different text scanner passing text needing conversion to LC.

Some extra release-time work will be needed if TWN is used this way with language conversion, as it's unlikely that anyone would want to run some ./do_ui_language_generation.sh on what they have downloaded. Technical difficulties can be overcome as experiments and PoCs appear; it's mainly the consensus that needs to converge.

  1. An interesting way of making LC HTML-dumb is through <pre>-{}-blah...</pre>.
