[Unison-hackers] Update and cleanup plan for the macOS UI

[Benjamin C. Pierce]

> All these changes should be very welcome.

> To your questions: 
> 
>> * Would it be OK to rename the folder from uimac14 to just uimac? Since this is the one and only macOS UI, the extra 14 seems confusing.
> 
> Yes, this rename is overdue.
> 
>> * What do think about localization? Is it too much effort to maintain in the future? Otherwise, I might also consider a German localization.
> 
> We’ve considered localization in the past, but the hesitation has indeed been that it might be hard to maintain (and, relatedly, might make a lot of the code quite a bit uglier).

>> If this proposal is welcome, I would work on this in the coming weeks. I don’t want to make any projections for when I will be finished, though. My progress will be visible in my fork on GitHub: https://github.com/mroi/unison (I will take the liberty of reordering commits or rebasing against upstream at any time, so do not expect fast-forward updates.)

> Thanks very much for your efforts (to come)!
> 
>> PS: Finally, I should thank you for this great tool. I heavily use Unison as part of my daily routine and it has easily helped me keep my sanity when working across multiple machines.
