This is, of course, when working with the original gettext, maybe some replacement crops up. BTW, would it be ok to save the .po-source-file(s) on installation somewhere? That way, a possible installer could read them, merge them with plug-in specific parts and write a hash file. I'd want this in 1.2, since I expect that 1.2 will be the standard for a long time (just like 1.0), and I expect that an installer-type program will ermerge in the meantime. Having all information in place would be a major help, even if we come up with e better solution.
