It would make it easier in the future if fixed strings in cylc such as "Task Tag" were moved into their own module, for easy internationalisation.

foo = _("Task Tag") where Python figures out a mapping for the string from some place.

We'll try and find if anyone is interested.
[@hjoliver] in having it done, and in doing it for us. It isn't a complex programming job.

This is being done in https://github.com/cylc/cylc-web, which has already support for i18n. We could mark this as superseded, but only if we assume having the command line in English only is OK.

CLI help text can do with i18n as well. E.g. my environment of svn would do this:

$ LANG=pt_BR.utf8 svn
Digite 'svn help' para uso.
$ LANG=en_GB.UTF8 svn
Type 'svn help' for usage.

Being realistic we aren't going to manage this for 8.0.0! Bumping to some-day unless there are any objections.
