Yes, it isn't ideal. But that's what we are currently doing for markup
anyway.

I don't think it really warrants major changes to the XML structure like
that. We're only trying to get rid of the attributes that cover the
entire string. e.g. for "<b>all bold</b>" the translators don't want the
"<b>" and "</b>" to be in the po files.
