Localizer also uses PO files for Python products, they're stored
in the "locale" directory. It has been this way for a long time.
I didn't knew that the Plone folks have taken the same approach.

The goal is to let to use Localizer as the back end for the i18n
ZPT namespace, this includes the MessageCatalog meta type (when
you develop through the web) and the PO/MO files of the "locale"
directory (when you develop from the file system).

There's a branch in Localizer (named "branch-zpt-i18n") for these
purposes. Nothing has been done there yet, but yesterday I added
Florent Guillaume as developer of the LLEU project, he's interested
to contribute in this area, as is Jean-Paul Smets and myself. If
somebody else wants to help just tell me.
