Let me be a bit more clear. It's a no go since it totally breaks the module 
concept KDE and thus KDE i18n has been using forever. That is, in which of 
this "packages" [ http://l10n.kde.org/stats/gui/trunk-kde4/team/ca/ ] do i 
extract the po files that originate from the kate repo?
As I see it, answers can be:
 * In a new top level "package" -> no go for me since kate is in no way more 
important than say k3b
 * Each file in a totally different "package" -> no go for me since it means 
having to add manually rules for each of the .po files you create from the 
kate repo

So this is why i think it's a no go, and why opossed ages ago already.
