Yes, this would be really great to have such a mechanism. I've forwarded your 
email to the kde-docbook mailing list so we can start thinking at it.

For now, I encourage you to use the small script that is located in
	kde-i18n/
and named
	check_gui_texts
as it does something very close to what you are requesting.

Syntax is :
	./check_gui_texts <language> <documentation>

For example :
	./check_gui_texts da kolf

It's less automated than what you are requesting, but it still makes win a lot 
of time... and is good for people with bad memory like you and me ;-).
