---------------------------------------

FWIW, I have no exposure to this, so I don't have an opinion either way (apart from "less code == good").

> We support several different message loaders (inmemory, icu, iconv).  However... we don't have any translations to actually warrant all this complexity, and likely never will.  We have the basic en_US and that's it.  So this code is essentially unused, and I don't see much prospect of it being used in the future given that there have been zero translations written in the last two decades.
> In order to reduce the size of the test matrix and reduce the maintenance burden, I'd like to ask if this is something we could safely drop?
> See also XALANC-808 which is the same issue for Xalan-C.
