I suppose intltool should be able to extract strings directly from the 
glade2 file, rather than needing a separate "extracted strings" header 
file for xgettext to process.  I don't know whether intltool supports 
the new glade format or not though.  It is trivial to do so though -- 
just add the contents of <property> elements to the catalog if the 
translatable attribute is set to "yes".  For example:

    <property name="label" translatable="yes">Terminal Class:</property>

It should be very straight forward.
