What would it look like if we stored information on whether a field should be translated in the schema?
If you could just put
<?php
'translatable' => TRUE,
?>
in your field's definition and that would be enough to trigger proper handling when an item is inserted, updated, or prepared for display?
I just posted for review a module that tries to answer this question: http://drupal.org/node/312038. Please have a look and review.
