Should g.parser be updated to allow the translation domain to be
specified?

Currently, it uses "grassmods" (g.parser itself is a module), but that
means that anyone wanting to translate a custom script has to merge
their translations into the grasssmods_*.po files.

It might be useful to allow this to be overridden via e.g. an
environment variable (adding command-line options to g.parser is
tricky), so that individual scripts could use a different domain.
