GRUB has now $"..." syntax but since only one .mo can be loaded at a time usefulness is limited.
Domain part is postponed until after 2.00

Description of the problem:
=============================

The gettext command currently has no option for saving the result in a variable or otherwise getting it into a menu entry title (or anywhere else but printed on screen). As far as I can tell, while the C gettext function is used everywhere for translating error messages and the like, the gettext grub-script funtion is currently only meant for testing the underlying gettext functionality.

Feature request:
================
gettext should have an equivalent use to the C gettext one. That means that the same way a variable is parsed the gettext function should be detected and parsed accordingly.

The main reason for requesting this feature is for implementing translations at grub runtime.
