I think there is a point to that: Users who do not need the full
commands of Emacs translated, but simply want the efficient large-file
handling and fontification. 

A translated menu and a toolbar make this much easier.

Another group are those who speak some English, but have an easier time
reading their native language. When reading English at a word per
second, a translated menu helps a lot already, but messages can still be
deciphered when needed.

Best wishes,
Arne
