Labs/Jetpack/Localization

We've had some prelimenary thoughts on Jetpacks and l10n. Our basic thoughts are:
- Disassociate translation files from the Jetpack itself. It's important that an author doesn't need to think hard about localization, and that others can then (from the Gallery) localize a Jetpack without the need to coordinate with the original author. (Of course, an original author can specify that they don't want others to localize, but that's not the default.
- Use gettext for JS code.
- We need to find a nice way of doing localization in HTML. This probably involves finding a nice pre-existing solution for doing client-side webpage localization. Anyone know about this?
