I think a pt_PT translation would be brilliant :)

Well, most portuguese software does the same, leaving technical terms
untranslated for the most part. MD being a technical-oriented software
(and not a user-oriented software, like an accounting package, for
example), I think leaving technical terms untranslated is not that
bad. That said, it might be useful to look at other professional
software that has already been translated, and take some cues from
there.
