Couldn't agree more with Siebrand. Just as we're thinking of a mobile
first design strategy, let's also please keep internationalization in
mind from Day 1 when designing for en.wp.

If this can somehow be done in an i18n-able way, I'm all for it.
In any case, please, please, please, talk this over with us
(Localisation team), before writing something in stone that's an i18n

"productize" for *possible* deployment on other wikis" has bitten WMF
in the ass enough now (ATFv5, PageTriage).
