Wow. Thanks for the lot of feedback. I'm impressed. 
Based on the mails I suggest this: In future we will not mark author's
names of plugins as translatable. In case of somebody of you do have a
name usually not spelled with latin letters the string could look like
'original_spelling (latin_spelling)'. As an example I copy in the
example Liviu did use (sorry Adrian ... ;) ) "Адриан Димитров (Adrian
Dimitrov)" 

Cheers
