One fairly serious drawback to this idea is that it
inhibits i18n. For security reasons it has to be
implemented at compile time and only work on string
literals. But then you can't use an i18n package to
rewrite the string at run time. And trying to i18n
the component parts of the string doesn't work
because of grammatical differences between languages.
