I find this would add a lot of extra handling for something that's not really that necessary imo

#

Or at this point, just nuke the whole per-file type translation and only use that system

I think for something like vanilla with thousands of lines it makes sense - where as for mods it's a bit tedious (although admittingly, also not a huge deal.)

I'd rather suggest to put translations into 1 file, for example: UI.json

{
    "UI_ModSomething": {
        "EN" : "EN Translation",
        "PTBR" : "PTBR Translation"
    },
    ...
}

So we dont have to have 15 folders

that's good for one mod doing all languages translations of one other mod, that's not so good for one mod doing translations in one language for many mods.

Different people submit translations for my mod at random too, Id rather not have to copy/paste them into one file, especially because (Im not sure if changed since JSON), some languages don't even use the same file encoding

That's why you should use GitHub pull requests anyway to handle contributed translations

Oh, checked the translation page and apparently everything is UTF-8 now thankfully, the last few Cp1250, ISO-8859-15 and Cp1252 holdouts got converted.
