One of my first and favorite translators (Japanese to English) would have little footnotes explaining some cultural context to a phrase or why she picked a particular word over another when there was no direct analog in English. It made the whole experience so much more interesting and gave a much deeper understanding to the text.

And when another translator started translating the same work, she made a point to state in her end notes that it was great that other translators were working on it. As long as people don't copy her work, she didn't care and thought it would be interesting to see the judgement calls another person would have (it wasn't because she was so thorough but still).

She set the bar so high that I'm still often disappointed by other fan translators.
