I do not know of any translation limitations. However if you do find any please raise an issue and I will fix them.

I only speak 1 language so I don't know a lot about translation but I will do anything I can to make sure that there are no limitations in translations.

so basically what are you saying is that it's not yet tested or no issues have come up so far consering 'tranlastion' problems.
ok let me ask you something for example with ubercart.

Ubercart makes no distinction between normal nodes and translation nodes. So every node thats a translation is a product on its own for Ubercart.
Also,
a lot of what most people would consider core functionality like stock levels, attributes are not core to the product and so synchronising across multiple translations becomes a nightmare the more products you add.
and other issues here http://www.ubercart.org/forum/internationalization/8725/translating_prod... and http://www.ubercart.org/forum/internationalization/4246/multiple_languag...

. . .
p.s :sorry that i have to mention ubercart but it's you and them when it comes to drupal ;)

eC has the same issue, as it's the way the i18n module works that's giving everybody issues.

I think it might improve with D7 as I believe (and someone correct me if I'm wrong) you'll be able to translate the body 'field' instead of creating a new node (don't know about the title though).

But until then, I don't know if Gordon has any tricks up his sleeve.
