I wonder if there is a possibility to filter out all the strings with
plural forms into separate files, then quickly distribute the files to
multiple translators, then merge back the translations – it could be a
very quick operation. I would contribute.

We did that with KDE when we needed to switch from using „byla“ to
„failas“. But that was filtering based on keyword, which is possible
thanks to translate-toolkit. Does anybody know if such filtering is
possible based on the presence of plural forms?
