Bug Description

I'm a Swedish translator for the Ubuntu project. When looking at the number of translatable files for the Ubuntu project. version 14.10, i.e
https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/utopic/+lang/sv/+index?batch=75
it tells me there are 500 translatable files at the moment.
However, when downloading the base language pack, for 14.10 https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/utopic where they all should be included, there's only 460 files.
For example, https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/utopic/+source/ubiquity/+pots/ubiquity-debconf/sv/+translate
is missing, a quite important installer file.
Is this on purpose (and if so, what's the logic behind it) or is it a bug?

Why do I want to be able download all language files at once? To be able to grep in them, so that the translations of certain key words stays the same. Also, it makes it easy to find translation bugs, when I don't know in which package they are - in launchpad you can't search all files in a language at once.

Due to different files being used at different occasions, they are not all in the base package - so lets see this bug as a whish list/feature request: Could you add a link to download all translatable files in one go for a specific distribution?
example: *all* listed here for 14.10 https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/utopic/+lang/sv/+index?batch=75

The reason is that i would be easy for the translator to grep for consistency checks and things like that.
