Yes, translation module. It's not easy task, but not very hard, nor impossible.
Utf-8 support would be essential. My thoughts where using using some existing i18n libraries and make them work in client.
It would also help the translation of server messages, if the server "speaks" via translatable formating (eg: {"You are buying %d apples.", 12}).

UTF-8 is supported by V for long time AFAIK; but TomeNET doesn't ported it (yet)

They created a patch for Tomenet that allowed input of korean language, but I don't know details about it, which encoding, if english was possible at the same time or not, sorry.
I think it was on nethack.byus.net somewhere.

I've found!
