It causes pain for developers & vendors because debug logs from users can in any language which the person receiving will often not be able to understand. It creates pain for translators by giving them an insane amount of work todo, which never ends since log message text is changed so often. Now we're creating yet more pain & complexity by trying to produce multiple log domains to solve a problem of havin some many msgs to translate. I accept that some people will like translated log messages, but I don't think this is a net win when you look at the overall burden they're imposing. Shouldn't we just say no to this burden and remove translation of all log messages, except for those at WARN/ERROR level which is likely to be seen by administrators in a day-to-day basis. There's few enough of those that we wouldn't need these extra translation domains. IMHO translating stuff at DEBUG/INFO level is a waste of limited time & resources.
