Unless you ! want to stick them in control.tar.gz and deal with them in ! /var/lib/dpkg/info/. When debconf l10n was being developed, this was ! thought to be a bad idea. At least, it would not be something that could also be used outside D-I. It could probably work in D-I as we do not preconfigure udebs, but developing support for .mo files for cdebconf just for D-I does not seem like the most option.
