ChildrenOf() with Translatable extension

Hi,

what is the intended behavior when using ChildrenOf() in a multilanguage page that uses the Translatable extension?

Since ChildrenOf() takes a url-string as argument and url-strings can (and will) be localized it became pretty much useless, or?

In my special case I´m generating a menu with something like ChildrenOf(work). In German this needs to become ChildrenOf(arbeit).

What is the recommended way to go here? Do I have to check for the selected language and map it to the relevant url-string?

What can be an alternative for building menus from only part of the site tree?

Thanks!
