AFAICT a separate 'cmf_core' domain would be the best solution to 
support your use case, but

a) at the moment there is only *one* MessageID in CMFCore. If more 
messages are converted to MessageIDs depends on contributed patches / 
bug reports.

b) it is easy to split the domain at a later point.

c) we are currently cheating with portal_status_messages sent through a 
redirect. CMFDefault always translates them in the cmf_default domain.

d) Florent voted against it.

I'm afraid not. At least not now. But with a small script you should be 
able to extract a CMFCore message catalog yourself.
