It's also how ITH work with most (closed source) visual novel out there. And no chiitrans doesn't need any modification to any other software to use, it automatically catch clipboard (which ITH will refresh with the dialogue if properly configured), you can read several online guide out there if you're interested.

You seem to have missed my main objection:
ITH and the other tools you mention are for Windows Only
But PPSSPP is a multi-platform project

There is no way to make a Windows dll work for Android or other non-Windows systems.
(Wine/DosBox emulation is not an option for running a console emulator.)

I agree with that, but I don't see how any Windows-specific tools can change that.

Also, in console games quite a lot of the text displayed is not handled as normal text character code sequences, but as special cases of graphics images and video streams, which no translation software of the kind you mention could cope with.
