While this does sound like a good idea, I unfortunately can't get it to work. I've tried merging all of the patch files with the update, but what ends up happening is a mess of untranslated and translated assets, unfortunately. Plus another reason I am avoiding this is that it would pretty much double the size the game takes, which would suck up about 800MB of people's memory cards (if they are using the CIA version, that is).Sounds good. I could like without the banner honestly (although the one Elratauru posted looks damn fine) so having a small one-time patch to replace the banner and then delivering all the TL files via update patch sounds like the way to go, especially since the update breaks stuff again as you already said. But what do I know
I am torn when it comes to this matter, on one hand this is an English Patch so they really should be in English but to get them even close to looking right seems like so much effort when the game already has Song Previews that help you easily identify what you are after and I've even seen people not want the English Titles on the previous Taiko, almost doesn't seem worthwhile.
Can't forget about the DLC, even though we can patch them to be English its a hassle.
On another note before we get that nice shiny new 1.0 update that lets us use the games update as well I toyed with getting iOS Taiko songs into the 3DS version and had some success
This is another reason I'm leaning towards just keeping Japanese Song Titles, they are much easier for me to re-create when it comes to Custom DLC as opposed to me spending way too long trying to get English to fit, porting songs is already a chore on its own, already have to let them auto play a few times till I get them to end correctly and take me to the score screen.
Now... if only I could find more up to date pack of iOS Songs... what I have is like a year old.
Wohoo! Patch version 1.0 and the patch for the 1.1 update have been uploaded!
Damn, that's awesome! The days leading up to the release of a completely custom Taiko 3DS game (or at least one with completely custom DLC) is nearing closer and closer, haha! Hopefully you can find some more of the iOS songs. I know the new Android version is... weird, so I don't know if there are dumps of it's songs yet.
too many songs to port over though and not enough time and I'm lazy 
Ah, I'm sorry but I am running windows right now and I don't know how to chmod it from here. I ran Linux for a few years before I built my current PC, but I remember that marking a shell script is as simple as just right clicking the file and marking it as executable. That might just be what people have to do right now, especially since I use a tool to generate the patches anyway and I'd rather not have to boot into a VM to mark them as executable or anything. Sorry!
Sorry for the lack of updates guys!
Just letting you all know that I have just finished translating the song titles for the song select menu that appears on the bottom screen, and have sent the texture files to @tiduscrying.
Here's a sneak peek:
