Not if you're putting other data there, no.  Chandler, for example, 
has an i18n framework that stores message catalogs and other 
localized resources there.

Of course, it's certainly possible to use egg_info.writers plugins 
that would copy those things there, but it's a lot easier for 
development if you don't, as it would require a build step every time 
you changed something.
