Too complex for who? :-)
I actually don't think it would be that complicated.
Every time you get a text a method is called which returns the text in 
the right language.
So my idea is to make this method wrap the text with a span tag with 
some mouseover JS.
Something like this example:

But either opening a new window for translating, or something cool AJAX 
stuff(which I don't know much about yet).

I don't know what you mean without actual functionality - how would you 
disable functionality?
