Unfortunately that is not possible. Right now Solid is translated using .po 
but that only works in KDE applications because you have a KGlobal+KLocale 
around that loads .mo files (compiled .po), hijacks Qt calls and maps them to 
the .mo contents. Without a KGlobal+KLocale around that will not work.

This means that if you want Tier 1 frameworks to be translatable you need 
either to teach Qt to understand gettext files natively or to make Tier 1 
frameworks use pure based Qt/Linguist solutions which does not fit either in 
what scripty is able to do neither in what our translators are used to.
