It was not mine, I think it was Bram's suggestion :)

Then the amount of i18n strings does not make difference, as currently
this is just not translated. So it should go in.

I think it is reasonable. You should try it first in trunk and port it
to 3.5 in 3.5.6 timeframe.
I think it would also be useful to provide the strings to translate as
soon as possible (in trunk, maybe in kdereview module?), so that we can
start working on it, even before KDE4 version is ready. Of course, after
possible reductions in number of strings is done :)
