Or you can do it the way front-end does and create a 'localizeText(id, default_translation)' function which you will use to print texts. Best of the two worlds.

Not without problems. If you change you default translation, you must also change the one you have sitting in your file for your translator.

We used static file analysis to extract default (English) strings into files.
