Add support for "translate" and "blocktranslate" tags.

[Mike Hansen]

We'd like to add aliases for the trans and blocktrans template tags which do not have connotations to the transgender community. An initial proposal would be to add translate and blocktranslate as aliases.

I've created ​https://github.com/django/django/pull/11500 as a starting point with a focus on minimizing changes to the Django code initially. Depending on people's thoughts, we're happy to do the work if people would prefer these to be the defaults throughout the codebase.

I really don't see what negativity does the current trans tag bring. I would have understand if the trans template tag function was in any way related to human gender thematic. In this case, it's just some random synonymity without any bad connotation, in my opinion.
If you disagree, you may discuss it on the django-developers mailing list first.

Well, it isn't too hard to imagine the mental associations created by "block trans" for someone who identifies as "trans", even if it's just a synonym.

[James Pic]

Would "translateblock" be even more relevant than "blocktranslate" ?

[Claude Paroz]

Thanks for the effort you made by bringing the subject on the ​discussion list. Looks like there is good support for this idea.
Only the blocktranslate vs translateblock variant looks still undecided.

[Mike Hansen]

I've added a pull request at ​https://github.com/django/django/pull/11811 which switches to these by default (but still maintains support for the previous ones). I think that blocktranslate is better as that is closer to what people will be looking for if they are familiar with the blocktrans tag.
