I know it is worth doing incremental translation work but I'm talking about
the alpha cycle. We'll need to give time to translators and apply those
modifications. I think it is too much time for an alpha release.

Are you proposing encourage translation without giving time to translate after
the end of commitfest? If so, I think we always give such a choice ('cause the
translations are in PGFoundry); we just need some committer to grab those
modifications and apply to CVS. +1 to add this step to alpha release process.
