How do you see the translation of those datasets happening? I.e. do you want 

a) The translation is in the json
b) The translation is in the .po file

b) is certainly easier, since you just need to extract the text from the .json 
to a dummy cpp in Messages.sh time and then just call 
i18n(theTextInEnglishFromTheJson) and everything works.
