I thought about replying and coming up with good reasons, but I wrote some patches instead. They can also be found at https://github.com/stefanbeller/git/tree/submodule_i18n_verbose I think these would be a good foundation for your patch as well, as you can use the output() function for the desired cases. Feel free to take these patches as part of your series or adapt (or be inspired by) as needed.
