Shit, I knew somewhen someone was trying to do this ;-)

Right, once I have a KDE pre-3 I'll add that.  The question is where those
untranslated names should be hidden: a) in a (hidden) directory, b) per
.dot names, or c) simply by not listing them in list().
(a) and (b) would be ugly to some extent, and (c) would make it difficult
to know the actual names without looking at the code.
