Another low priority NMU is on its way to complete the current debconf

style.
I was wondering whether it is a good idea to do this so shortly before
release. I surely agree with improving the style, but doing so now
obsoletes or fuzzies many of the existing translations, with just a
short time to update them, which means that the program will be less
translated in Etch than it is now.
Is it a good idea to improve some style details if this is at the cost
of less translations? Isn't it better to do this right /after/ Etch?
I've been explicitly holding off of making tweaks to templates right
before a release.
