If you use kbabel for translations you will save yourself a lot of hassle and 
details because you can look how the word is translated in other files. Copy 
another translation, replace in all files in one go...

It's a one line sed or perl script but the problem this may yield erroneous 
results when the word is withing a context that's different. This is why we 
have comments on the .po files telling the context. Since we are in QA these 
things should be humanly-based rather than machine-based.
