Well, yes, but I guess they wouldn't want to translated them
themselves, so why personal i.e. with catalog in the home directory?

GIMP itself uses two and a plugin uses also two. Running them together
will make three. :)

That would be possible... you can even use the .mo files which are
smaller and decompose them before merging... to calculate the hashfile
you can use gettext... the only drawback: This would imply that all
users have the gettext package installed...

yes..... we could even compress them...
