Please see what Gnome i18n coordinator thinks below. There might be
misunderstandings.
Anyway in the Tamil domain Bluefish is well received. I like it a lot.
Other translation teams might have similar ideas.

The idea is to translate (and maintain) in the same context as other
similar software.
I am sure you agree that it is the only way to ensure the Gnome desktop
is really useful.

must point out that... as Abiword from a similar position (actually GTK is not used there)
somehow integrates  tightly with Nautilus, I wonder whether you have
explored presenting an option to open atleast HTML in Bluefish (by
default).
Uniform pango support is a good thing from my point of view.
There will be good UTF-8 encoded websites :)

All the best,

Because Bluefish is not in GNOME CVS (it uses Sourceforge according to
its homepage at http://bluefish.openoffice.nl/). The GTP only translates
what's in GNOME CVS.

Thus, if you feel that you would like an application to be translated by
the GTP, you must first convince the application developers to use GNOME
CVS.
