I really don't see the point of trying to localize org keywords. To me,
they are like the keywords in any programming language - part of the
language. Would you consider translating C or LISP keywords?

In addition to the trouble of supporting something like this within Emacs,
think of the growing ecosystem of tools which support org mode - they would
all need to be aware of these localizations. It would be a nightmare to
maintain.
