 I agree. I realized it would be better next minute after I've mailed
my message. There will be situations when servant is on a different
host and there is no translations for it on a local machine.

 But in that case:
  1) there should not be attempt to translate messages on the client side
  2) client should pass to servant nessasary locale settings.
