I- You are the one who mentionned numeric ids, right ? :)
II- We must decide whether the order of strings is meaningful / useful
within po files ? If this is the case, this order must be known and
retained when we pull the data out of the database.
 
Yes Ghoniem.. it has a meaning.. my point is instead of create a new file and collect the approved strings + unmodified string to buildup a new PO file.. i just pickup the approved strings and update the translation of these strings in the PO file.. so i need to know where are these strings located in the PO file.. the 5th.. 25th or 32th string or whatever..this number i need it when i update the PO files again from the db.. does this answer your question? Ghoniem?!
