Don't know how to support this system-wide. A natural solution would be to 
enhance PO file header, but xgettext should provide an option for setting 
this. Maybe to report as a wish for GNU gettext?

What about a button "Report string as bug", which should invoke the
default mailer with the body of the message set to the
comment/msgid/msgstr triple. You would only need to fill in the address
(maybe there can be a pre-fill option)
