I think there are two axes of variation here:
1) internationalization, and
2) style guides, e.g., for a particular journal, Chicago Manual, etc.
IIUC, hardcoding and org-export-dictionary solve 1) but not 2).
In my experience, variation in 2) is idiosyncratic, though I haven't
looked specifically at table continuation lines.
The user can solve both 1) and 2) with customizable continuation
strings, so it might be best to stay on this path instead of hardcoding
and internationalization in org-export-dictionary.
All the best,
Tom
