Hmm, this is possible...with some small magic...

What we need to do is to have a way to mark strings like this so that
we can get them into the po files.

The solution as I see it is to have a script that parses all the
layout files (and other files perhaps) and look for the strings we
want to translate, these string should be output to a file
"extra_localization.h" that xgettext would parse and put the strings
into lyx.pot -> and thus into the po files.

this should not be very hard but it is a bit of work... I will do this
before 1.1.6 is released.

btw. I'd be happy for suggestions on norwegian translations of those
strings.
