I have send the proposal, and my translations (cyr and lat) to Nebojsa Djordjevic (current Serbian translator). He agreed that there should be Cyrillic version but uncertain under what code maybe sr for Cyrillicc and sr_lat for Latin). I expect his replay on quality of po files.
Recode-sr-latin is in gettext since version 0.15. In general, users would not need it, because the translators would synchronize Latin version with Cyrillic when every change is made in the official translations.
