Public bug reported:

The online accounts UI loads the plugins integration from some
.application files. Those are not translated, not translatable.

What needs to be done, is:
- rename the .application in .application.in
- ensuring that upstream have an application.in files with translatable tags (using _, as in <_description>I want to be translated</_description>). Example [1]
- add a <translations> tag containing the upstream domain
- then, at build time:

1. Running intltool-extract files.applications.in so that it gets merged
into a files.applications.in.h file. If you are using intltool already
in your build system (and you probably are), this should be happening
already and you can skip to step 2.

2. Including the .in file somewhere in the build system (like
po/POTFILES.in for Python apps and Makefiles.am for C/vala apps) so that
it's merged into the .pot file. In Python, it's just a matter of adding
it as an extra line to the po/POTFILES.in file (example [2]):

[gettext/xml]data/gwibber.application.in

3. And running intltool-merge --no-translations -x -u foo.applications.in foo.application to create the xml upstream file which is shipped
- online-account (the g-c-c plugin) should be patched to load them, looking at the <translations> tag and gettext (package, string)
