libwnck and metacity have quite many strings in common:

~/cvs/gnome-2.16$ msgcomm --more-than=1 libwnck/po/libwnck.pot
metacity/po/metacity.pot | grep '^msgid ".\+"'
msgid "Mi_nimize"
msgid "Unma_ximize"
msgid "Ma_ximize"
msgid "_Only on This Workspace"
msgid "_Always on Visible Workspace"
msgid "Workspace %d"
msgid "Workspace 1_0"
msgid "Workspace %s%d"
msgid "On _Top"
msgid "_Move"
msgid "_Resize"
msgid "_Close"
msgid "Move to Workspace _Left"
msgid "Move to Workspace R_ight"
msgid "Move to Workspace _Up"
msgid "Move to Workspace _Down"
msgid "Move to Another _Workspace"


Is this really necessary?
