I would move "resourece strings" and localization completely to text
conf files. It worked very well in my past experience with Java and
Python.
And compilation time translator files take is huge.

Yes, in Python I would use something like
module=module
generatedAutomatically=Generated for %{project-name} by Doxygen

So, you just need to tweak a resource (localization) file and pass it
to doxygen as a replacement to original.

But it is quite an effort to reimplement.
