Research direction

Start with templates/search.tmpl and compare it with the webapp pages that already contain translated text. Inventory the remaining user-visible strings and identify the existing translation mechanism before estimating the full scope. Done means the webapp pages are consistently covered by that mechanism and their translations can be verified.

Additional context

I might work on developing this feature, if help is needed.
