IMHO, KBabel::Catalog is plugin-based and we already have a plugin for .ts 
files. As I've asked some time ago, PoFile::info() should really not 
implement it's own framework for reading, but it should use 
Catalog::open() instead.

The easiest way is probably to move PoFile to read the content of the file 
using Catalog::open(). Then you would be basically done.

Yes, sure.
