Exactly - one task is then to define the mapping to the representation for
various formats. We did that for XML
http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/NOTE-xml-i18n-bp-20080213/#Modularization
see e.g. for XHTML
http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/NOTE-xml-i18n-bp-20080213/#relating-its-plus-xhtml
or for DITA
http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/NOTE-xml-i18n-bp-20080213/#dita-its-relating

but not for XLIFF and HTML5 - yet.
