Just noticed a possible inconsistency in kbabel.po:

#: kbabel/prefwidgets.cpp:122
Save &obsolete entries

#: kbabel/prefwidgets.cpp:272
<qt><p><b>Save obsolete items</b></p>\n
<p>If this option is activated, obsolete entries found when the file was 
open\n
will be saved back to the file. Obsolete entries are marked by #~ and are\n
created when the msgmerge does not need the translation anymore.\n
If the text will appear again, the obsolete entries will be activated 
again.\n
The main drawback is the size of the saved file.</p></qt>

If the second string is a tooltip or quickhelp for the first string, then 
"<qt><p><b>Save obsolete items</b></p>\n"
should be
"<qt><p><b>Save obsolete entries</b></p>\n"

#: kbabel/prefwidgets.cpp:744
<qt>
<p><b>Automatic checks</b></p>
<p>Activate here the things you want to have checked while 
editing.
<ul>
<li><b>Check Arguments</b>
: checks if the c-format arguments (%1, %s ...) in the original text and in 
the translated text match.</li>
<li><b>Check Accelerator</b>: checks if the number of \"&amp;\" 
match</li>
<li><b>Check Equation</b>: checks if the left side of an equation is the 
same. Useful for example when you edit KDE's desktop.po file.
<li><b>Check for Context</b>: checks if the context information has been 
translated. This means the first translated line starts with <b>_:</b>. 
</li>
<li><b>Check Plural Forms</b>: checks if strings that contain both singular 
and plural forms are translated correctly. (This is KDE specific at the 
moment)</li>
<li><b>Check Tags</b>: checks if XML tags and entities in the text are 
correctly formatted. This is useful when translating KDE 
documentation.</li></ul></p></qt>

-> this string talks about the desktop.po file. This file no longer exists, so 
the sentence should probably be rephrased.
