Every module may have a file named po/README.TRANSLATORS. In this

README.TRANSLATORS will mean that translators have implicit
permission to edit the source strings themselves to resolve simple,
obvious grammar and spelling errors. (I.e. more complex or non-
obvious changes will still require a bugzilla bug to be filed.)
This would save a lot of time, but how does it work with gettext? I
thought changing _anything_ in a source string would make the .mo file
fail on reintegration.
Not "source string" as in
# src/foo.c, 135
msgstr "pants"
I'm talking about editing a source string as in
vi src/foo.c +135
{
printf("_(pants)");
}
