yes this is def. a thing to do. Most morpgs actually store in in either a bit file or plain text, allowing for translation to other languages to.
like
[byte for number][byte for color][byte for string length][plaintext string]
yeah, players can edit it pretty easy, but hey, it makes funny screenshots?
or you could have the lengths fixed in the client, so it only loads certain lengths, diffferent for each language.
