I would agree, for instance, that an auto-translation tool is needed. We should get one written. ISTM, every %-formatting string is directly translatable to an equivalent {}-formatting string.
Yes, but not all are possible to guess with mere static analysis.
Even if perfect is not possible, decently good would probably cover a lot of use cases.
