We definitely need better application written using GTK+. GTranslator is
like a joke compared to KBabel. I personally use KBabel as a translation
tool of myself. It's okay, but KBabel is the only reason for me to
install whole qt libraries and lots of other KDE applications (almost
all platform in Fedora).

But that's nothing to do with damned-lies I guess. Web based
applications for translations won't cut, and it would make damned-lies
really over bloated.
