One idea that crossed my mind while reading the article: for websites that already use react-intl, have react-intl implement an API to allow supplying machine translations of messages into languages otherwise not supported by the app.

The problem with this is that it will only help sites that already put in effort to internationalization. Whereas the main target of Google translate are the sites that do not bother with i18n.

Still, it'd be quite valuable to the sites early in their internationalization journeys to get support for tons of languages right upon introducing internationalization.
