  Hi,
  
  I'm not happy with Ruby because of the runtime dependency. The same applies to Python, moreover Python is two not exactly compatible versions python2 and python3 which will probably complicate things.
  
  C++ should be OK, however I wrote this in Rust as an experiment to
  
  - Make the code safer, more concise and bulletproof than it would be in C++.
  - Learn myself some Rust.
  
  Now I realise Rust is a no go here because calling KI18n's i18n() or any other Qt FFI is going to be non-trivial until there are well-maintained Qt/KF5 bindings for Rust.
