Yep, and I'm perfectly fine with that solution. But the discussions
which followed the next days, gave me the impression that this was a
no-go, since "we" wanted to fix this properly instead of adding
"another hack" to the themestrings-generation process.

Ok, I'm not into Qt phrase books, but cool if that's a workaround for
keeping the existing translations on a future theme translation
solution.

If we're sticking with the old themestrings generation process for
0.25, with the minor addition of downloading the themes, then we
should probably get it fixed sooner rather than later. We still
haven't generated the themestrings after the last update to the run.sh
script (93c63ba0), so currently there's at least 100 unwanted
translatable themestrings in MythTV (another reason to give the
ThemeUI translations lowest priority at the moment, not to mention the
changes in available themes). If that's what we'll do for 0.25, then
I'll probably have time to add a hack for downloading themes next week
and then regenerate the themestrings while I'm at it.

Best regards
Kenni
