Hello team,

I might as well admit it now - I'm an emacs-holic.  There seemed to be
good vibes about using emacs to productively bulk-edit translation
files, so I investigated.  There is a small po file download link in the
attached email. You can get it if you're curious.

Anyway if Emacs is your editor-du-jour, then you need the package
gettext-el installed:

sudo apt-get install gettext-el

If you haven't got emacs installed, it might get pulled in as a
dependency.

Voila! Emacs now has a PO-mode.  It color-highlights & smart-indents the
file.  After a few seconds trawling, it seems obvious where to add the
translation strings.  In fact the special "PO menu" that appears has all
the nav & edit actions in it.
