I think it's great that Abel would be able to provide a zh_HK
translation to account for the difference in the two dialects
(however large or small the difference is). As I mentioned in my
comment, I also had a proper zh_HK adaptation in mind but never
got around to doing it.  But for various reasons, Abel is much
more suitable than I to do this correctly, and having the generic
zh_TW translation properly adapted for zh_HK is certainly superior
to the "good enough for now" solution of copying zh_TW to zh_HK.

(Personally, I think that since we now have a separate zh_HK, for
the sake of fairness, Paladin Liu will need to QA the current
zh_TW file to revert the small number of translations that favour
zh_HK.  I don't believe we have time to do this for now, however;
perhaps in the next release.)

Sorry if I have been too unclear in my comment in the ticket. And
sorry again if I had caused any other trouble.
