How is it done now?  Is a string hardcoded in a variable in the plugin?
If so, as long as the domainname of the plugin is known, the host can do
something like:

set_domainname(LC_ALL, plugin->domain);
label = gettext(plugin->label);
set_domainname(LC_ALL, host->domain);

gettext works by looking up the source's native string in the translation
file.  As long as you can send gettext a known char*, it can look it up.
