When checking the po file I noticed SEVERAL pitfalls :) Namely that LyX is
written in C++ and makes extensive use of the cout << ... << ... << ...
construction which doesn't work at all when translating since the order of
wording can be QUITE different! When translating to Swedish it will
probably work most of the time, but it is an issue that has to be
resolved, and it has to be resolved in the code, in numerous places.

Bleagh.
