Yes that's fine too.

Ok right.

Uhm, the way I see it there is no translation needed, as the procedure
requires no user interaction. Are you referring to error messages.
As this feature would not affect the regular behaviour by any mean,
and would be triggered by and hidden debconf question, would it be
possible to include it anyway? It would let CDDs play and make tests
with it.
