In general - don't do this. You never know if translation are really
simular even if the original strings are. Better leave a comment and let
the translator decide if he wants to reuse the strings.

Translators can use their translation memory, son if the strings are the same in both po files, the TM will help them/us. Don't worry about that :)

its-tool[1] seems the way to go nowadays. It does only handle xml AFAIK.

There is also a tool called xml2po that can help you to get the .po file from your xml files, but i think itstool is the best choice.
