Here's a suggestion that should make everyone unhappy.

If you're in an environment with a user and a locale, like a phone app
or a web browser, use a local mapping to get U-labels and send them
along.  Or I suppose if that's too much javascript, send the locale
along with the unmapped text to the server with the mapping tables which
maps to U-labels.

If you're deep inside a server getting strings out of web pages or
files and it's not mapped, too late.
