No. I happen to have some expertise in the area as I've participated to 
two large and heavily internationalized systems. i18n has everything to 
do with string tables and formatting templates and emphatically nothing 
to do with exception hierarchies. The only possible link is that 
exceptions should provide the necessary hooks.
