What you describe here, for the first two points, is not
French-specific. In fact I was exactly planning to put this type of
information on the new documentation work-in-progress page (there is one
at http://i18n.kde.org/doc/work_in_progress.html, but it's old
pre-conversion-to-DocBook stuff.)

The third point could be a very nice extension to the current automated
script (the one that produces
http://i18n.kde.org/stats/doc/html/doc-fr.html). One could imagine that
the script takes a list of "remarks" you put in a separate file and
merges it with the automatically generated data. If I remember well,
Tobias Burnus is its author. You should see that with him.
