A few people are working on this and it should be available in Joomla 4.
We already (we = the production leader, the js group leader and all the members of the PWA group) have an agreement on how this should be implemented (this was done in JWC 2017), the only missing part here is the API for the templates but I guess this will be resolved in the coming weeks. So please stay tuned and maybe test the code as soon as we publish it in the J4 repo.

@brianteeman, I recently manually created this file with the site settings and thought that it would be cool to be able to make these settings through the CMS admin panel!

@dgt41, thanx!

Now your original post makes sense ;)

@dgrammatiko @wilsonge any update on this?

[dgrammatiko]

@brianteeman I'll do the PR after the custom elements cleanup

[universewrld]

I think you can add this to site settings (how is it done for file configuration.php)

Also look, W3C wants to add a new parameter translations that will be useful for multilingual sites - w3c/i18n-activity#914
