"Not totally doomed" (I haven't done a character-by-character survey of
the goings on).

Implementing on top of an interface like this is a real pain, since you
can't help re-implementing chunks and scratching your head about how to
pass the info you've got out back in again.  But it's worth doing now
internationalisation / internationalization / Internationalisierung /
... is considered basic.

It probably mostly needs a few tests.  print -P %D{...} will do most of
what you want.
