The specific need is that I want to set the 'Mobile-frontend-terms-url' message to '//m.wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Terms_of_Use' via the WikimediaMessages extension, so that people clicking the 'Terms of Use' link at the bottom of the page will get sent to the Terms of Use in their own language. Right now, wiki administrators have to override this message locally to point to the correct translation (after checking to see if it actually exists).
Side note, extensions can no longer override core messages. I don't know if extensions can override other extensions, but I doubt it.
So you might have to add on to the mechanism I did (reviews welcome, especially from i18n people) at https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/137528/ (after the patch is merged, it's easy to just add one more key).
