This is something I mentioned to Federico, but didn't get an answer.
Moving the file would be pretty easy. We'd need to add a variable to the
pkg-config file for apps to find it (if we don't move the selection
dialogue), and copy and intltool-update the pot files from gnome-applets
(I don't think there's been any changes in translatable strings, and
that'll get us updated translations for free).

Does gweather in the gnome-applets use the same dialogue as the updated
clock-applet does? If not, we might want to take the dialogue from the
intlclock instead.
