Of course, I'm an old emacshead so po-mode works well for me, but I
just fired up KBabel and it seems nice too.  Then again, I'm a
monolinguist (various high school and college language courses
notwithstanding) so I don't actually /do/ much translating.

I've added a short reference to it in the README-I18N.en file, but
anything more you can provide will be appreciated.

Excellent.  I fully expect there to be micro releases of the 2.1
branch and I wouldn't have too much qualms adding non-intrusive
support for Farsi in a micro release.
