I'll admit I didn't think to just do a grep of the file structure. When
I do it I get:

> /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/django/contrib/admin/locale/en/LC_MESSAGES/django.po:msgid "Add another %(verbose_name)s"
> /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/django/contrib/admin/templates/admin/edit_inline/tabular.html: addText: "{% blocktrans with inline_admin_formset.opts.verbose_name|capfirst as verbose_name %}Add another {{ verbose_name }}{% endblocktrans %}",
> /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/django/contrib/admin/templates/admin/edit_inline/stacked.html: addText: "{% blocktrans with verbose_name=inline_admin_formset.opts.verbose_name|capfirst %}Add another {{ verbose_name }}{% endblocktrans %}"

The latter two being the HTML templates used for the stacked and tabular
inline widgets. I guess that's a starting point then. :-)
