This really confuses me now, though. Is this another gsettings file format? Why does it have two different file formats for roughly the same thing. Or is it not the same thing? It sounds as if you are not yet sure about the design, but it doesn't make sense for intltool to support weird layouts until you are.

Btw, why decide on a format like this? Why not use a simpler .ini format instead? (intltool already has support for it when "_" is prepended to keys to extract, like .desktop files)

Will this require merging support as well? (support to generate files of the roughly similar structure which contain translations either instead or in addition to original English strings) If yes, how should that work? If no, how are you going to find out the relevant translation domain for each of the gschema files?
