CCing Bastien.

The main issue with non-English translations is maintenance. As you
noticed, English and non-English pages are already out of sync.

We need some better way to maintain translations. For example, we may
maintain a checksum of the translation vs. original English version
per-paragraph or per-section. Then, we can automate export for
non-English pages that will only use the translations that correspond to
the originally translated paragraphs and fall back to English otherwise.
