Hi All,

I recently watched the ElasticOn talk on [Modern NLP in the Elastic Stack](https://www.elastic.co/elasticon/archive/2021/global/modern-nlp-in-the-elastic-stack). It was very interesting to see how Elastic is looking to integrate NLP. On this topic, I noticed that recently Elastic had added [language identification](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/machine-learning/current/ml-lang-ident.html). I was wondering if there are plans to add native support for language translation within Elasticsearch? In the future with Pytorch support I believe you could potentially use something like [t5-base](https://huggingface.co/t5-base) to do this, but a more native implementation would be very helpful.
