That metatdata document is quite old, yes.  I don't think I understand
what you mean with an item based approach. Can you expand a bit on that,
please? The only major shortcoming I currently see in the version
control functionality of Pootle is the ability to commit / update entire
directories/projects at a time. I don't know to what extent we would
have to extend the versioncontrol.py for that.

Obviously it is a yes :-)  We'll just short out the details now. Please
share your ideas of how to meaningfully move this to the toolkit and
what the cleanest organisation would be.
