The translation message catalogs contain a lot of Template Toolkit
statements in the messages. They bloat the message lengths, and
add unnecessary complications for translators, making errors
far more likely.

For example, there's no need to have "INCLUDE 'opac-bottom.inc'"
show up as a placeholder in the messages.

Using the following incantation:
grep -E '^#\. %[0-9]+\$s: ' po/xx-YY-*.po | cut -d':' -f 3- | sed -e 's/^
*\(IF\|ELSIF\|CASE\|SWITCH\|INCLUDE\|USE\|SET\|PROCESS\|BLOCK\|FOREACH\|UNLESS\)
*.*$/  \1 /g' | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn

we get a list of all placeholders, sorted by # of uses. The top-5 is:

       1750   END
       1429   IF
        647   ELSE
        263   ELSIF
        252   INCLUDE
