In addition to a mechanism for specifying how source files are identified and
how they map to translation files, a preview of the results of such a mapping
would be useful in helping maintainers to ensure and be confident that they
have the correct setting. This would entail a display showing some or all
source files that are detected with the current settings, and which translation
files they would map to in one or more of the active locales (possibly
indicating whether the translation files are found on the file system). This
would be especially valuable if maintainers are given access to something like
the above syntax to specify manually the exact mapping of source files to
translation files.
