Of course they do. Why wouldn't they?
Was just asking.
I have some ideas for a mechanism that would allow to do such
inter-translator linking, but it seems rather complicated and there
are some possible failure modes that I'm not sure how to handle
sanely. All in all, I'm not sure it's really worth the
trouble. Probably I will only find out once I start doing fancy
stuff with translators...
If you do start experimenting with this, please share the results.

No idea what you mean :-(
Ignore that, just some unprocessed thoughts on the subject.
Cheers.
