More usefull yet would be a small tutorial explaining how to modifiy
sources of a Gnome program so that the desktop, directory, soundlists, etc
files get handled by xml-i18n-tools.

The main adavantage of doing so is that those files will then be translated
trough the normal po mechanism (not at run time; but at compile time), which
means they will finally be iun synch with curent translation status (those
files tend to be very very behind compared to the po files)
