Sure, bu that needs changes to maintainers scripts, which I tend to
avoid.
An alternative would be a comment telling translators to not translate
"Select manually" in the logn description.
However, your proposal is interesting, with an amendment I would propose:
Onstead of:
>
> # Translators: please leave ${otherchoices} untranslated
> __Choices: ${otherchoices}, Select manually
> Default: Select manually
I'd rather go for:
#flag:translate!:1
__Choices: ${otherchoices}, Select manually
Default: Select manually
With this, ${otherchoices} will not be included in the translatable material.
