That makes total sense.

Then, what shall we do with our other ressources that are not in
Transifex so far? Cf. the thread with winterfairy@???. People
working only on Transifex won't probably never know they exist.

./chroot_local-includes/usr/share/gpgApplet/messages.pot
./chroot_local-includes/usr/share/tails-additional-software/messages.pot
./chroot_local-includes/usr/share/shutdown_helper_applet/messages.pot
./chroot_local-includes/usr/share/tails-security-check/messages.pot
./chroot_local-includes/usr/share/amnesia/messages.pot
./chroot_local-includes/usr/share/tails-about/messages.pot
./chroot_local-includes/usr/share/tails-htp-notify-user/messages.pot
./chroot_local-includes/usr/share/unsafe-browser/messages.pot
./chroot_local-includes/usr/share/tails-virt-notify-user/messages.pot

And some other launchers here and there...

Shall we ask Runa to add them all as well? Shall we select the most
important ones?
