Why bother?

The docs are already correct.  The generated text is already correct.  There 
is *no need for any action by the translators*.

Oh, that and the fact, we have no files named *.xml, and that the .docbook 
files we do have are generated out of .po files, so changing them would 
directly would be a: futile, and b: wouldn't alter the fact that if I touch 
the english docs, the strings will still be made fuzzy.
