Firstly I'm hoping this gets merged soon so this all becomes a
non-issue.

But having multiple branches would be harder for me, I used to have
three branches: infrastructure, gettextize and translations. Rebasing
all of those on top of each other and testing each of them was a PITA,
so I folded things back into one huge series.

But I don't think any of this is a problem for translators, they just
have to pull down any version of the series and start cracking at
"make pot && msginit ...". Maybe that POT file is *slightly* out of
date, but the translation strings themselves are really stable at this
point, so that's always going to be <1-2% of the translation that
needs to be fixed up & unfuzzied.

So just submit translations, maybe they'll make it as part of the
initial ab/i18n merge and maybe they won't.
