I get the impression they like the idea of translation, but a large chunk of the problem is the current translation system, which is horribly broken, and is less urgent than several other big development projects.
I think some RPG communities and some other specialised uses want more than 1000 tags, though obviously this will be a small proportion of the userbase.
Editing comments and getting emailed your own comments is worth $25 a year for me, even without the userpics. I think "Premium Paid" is aimed a lot more at those who do want to support the site financially as well, hence the larger jump in price. Also userpics cost disproportionately more compared to other paid benefits.
