As I recall, there were more reasons for log message ids than just i18n 
issues.  There's also the fact that an error message might change 
significantly from one release to another, but if it's still addressing 
the same issue then the message id could be left alone so searching for 
it would still return relevant results, regardless of the release.

That said, I don't know if anyone is actually working on the message id 
blueprint so I'm not sure how much it matters at this point. :-)
