If I understand correctly, you're asking whenever translators are as
important as DDs to the Debian Project?

[1] seems to imply they do, moreover, translators aren't the only kind
of people who lack coding skill that can help Debian Project.

In the light of the current discussion, this seems particulary fitting:

Social human behaviour experts

The objectives are:

Helping to solve flamewars. Debian is attempting to create a 'social
committee' to address interproject personal conflicts. If you have
experience in mediation or have suggestions for a conflict-resolution
process, please email the debian-project mailing list or the Debian
project leader ( leader@debian.org ) for more private issues.
