Since the existing infrastructure is still working for 4.1.7 and we already have the patches ready to go, we should just get it merged. Agree that we need to get to this, but I think it would be less disruptive to deal with this as part of 5.0, rather than add development time to a legacy bug fix release. 5.0 will have new language keys and (likely) a new directory structure anyways. Let plan on discussing translation impacts on 5.0 after we get moved to Github. That we we have our new CI setup in place before making any Phab tasks.
