It just occurred to me that it could be extremely beneficial to multi-lingual sites if discourse’s search would also search any translations (relevant for the current locale) available via the [translator++ plugin](https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourse-translator/32630). I’m assuming this is currently not the case, but could it be done?

Yup it can be done. The plugin would just need to find a way to extend `Search` to look at the right custom fields.
