Just a thought ...
What if it was all stored in a single page, with a syntax plugin to manage 
tagged content in containers:
<lang_en>
    ...
</lang_en>
etc.
There could also be common non-language specific sections as well.

Then another plugin to provide the appropriately cached page based on the 
user's preference:
page.txt, page.txt.en, etc. just by specifying another filename if the tags 
exist for that preference

The data could possibly then be edited independently, like section editing.

I don't know how this would play out, but might be possible.
