Re^2: How do I pretend a reference isn't a reference

That wouldn't help for a few reasons:

I don't want to translate all strings, so strings to be translated should be explicitly labelled.
This is a webapp, so the current language could change for each request, so strings shouldn't be translated at compile time
The app is 60,000 lines of code, plus CPAN modules - running a filter over that would be slow and error prone.
