The correctness of this code rests on the assumption that the GC will

local temp = translators[key] or {}
translators[key] = temp

(Actually the assumption may be wrong! a line hook may cause a GC between
the two lines when debugging this code ;)

Good catch! Also has the benefit of being slightly quicker. Will have to look out for that one.
