Rawketty-rawk. Didn't have time to get to it this week. :| This ought to be
integrated into intltools soon, so we'll have a few more options to hand

doc-i-t does it that way, but some of the xml-i18n-tools options don't -
they can integrate into the same file. Probably best to take some time on
this one, see what helps us more from a maintenance and xslt point of view.

I might have some time to put into this this weekend. I'll post with stuff.

Thanks Joshua!
