Mauro,

The way you described how to translate content is possible. The downside is 
that by copying the plug-in structure and pasting on your own plug-in 
demands you to maintain your plug-in when, for example, there are changes in 
the original plug-in structure -- you would have to manually reflect those 
changes.
As BUP structure and content get stable, the chances of you needing to 
maintain your plug-in because of changes will minimize.
Thanks for your interest and let's keep in sync about this topic. I'm sure 
good ideas will come on the translation arena.

Regards,

Ricardo Balduino
