Each locale should still provide an in-line translation of the
non-gettext default theme. Reading acid ramblings is bad enough.
Reading them in a language that's not your own is worse.
A gettext default theme would be offered purely to accommodate those
wanting to present their blog in multiple languages.
I think we can incorporate the strings for the gettext version of the
default theme into the default pot. This way the strings would be
translated by all projects and be present should the user decide to use
the gettext version of the theme.
