This is easily fixed with `msgcat -w 80 <pofile>`. Anyway he is planning
to get this feature inside

I contacted the xml2po developer. We discussed a solution to keep urls
out of the string. He has it in his TODO list. He is also working on
creating a valid PO header within the output, which will address the
point 4, I also found a bug [1]. Therefore I am stopping any further
researches until he releases a new enhanced version. I am happy xml2po
is the right tool ;)
