My (personal) preference would be to do this in a project branch.  Then
we can worry about what to do about translated documents, contingent on
if untouched translations contribute to build breakages.

He has an email account, but not a login account (if I remember

Hmm..  No idea about this part.

Thanks very much for starting this.

Unless there is objection from anyone, please feel free to create a
projects branch for these changes.
