We could also (automatically) build a DBMS reference table *from* this
message file (or files), which would allow lookup of messages from codes
for applications which are not "message-aware".

Not a requirement, and it does not meet all needs (e.g. you would have
to be connected to get the messages in that case) but it would be
helpful for some use cases...
