That's right. Because we're not actively organizing or vetting any
efforts to localize the feature beyond its initial test deployment, we
can't deploy to other languages unless there's a clear, proposed
configuration and a consensus to use it. Given the still experimental
nature of the feature, and the relatively high cost to manage a
community-wide change, that's purely a pragmatic choice. We've made
the same choice for ArticleFeedback and other experimental features,
and will likely do so with others.
