The compiler would have a command line option similar to that of xml documentation to extract all translatable strings either to a resx file (maybe using sha256 to generate identifiers), or to gettext-like string tables to be used with some other tooling.

My experimental implementatiion will use Managed.Commons.Core Translation interfaces/proxy to abstract the specific translation engine.
