What about this issue?
Is there any possibility to add headers to PO files? It could be possible,
at least, to add this header just to es.po files? It woulb be very useful
for me and for other translators/coordinators, and it is completely
transparent for translations (just note the X-Generator header added by
Kbabel or PoEdit).
Many thanks and Merry X-Mas
