There is a great need to provide facility in .po file to lock the strings for further editing. It is always very difficult for a coordinator or commmitter of any project to track change of all the translation again. So there should always be a facility so that a coordinator or a community can lock the strings so that file can be translated/editable only for new or fuzzy strings.

Sorry for the long delay, but it's still unclear to me what you want from gettext in this regard.
I can think of some enhancements to gettext tools:
- msgmerge to recognize a new attribute, say "locked", and do not alter the locked definitions as fuzzy or obsolete
- msgattribute to recognize the attribute
Will those match your requirements? Or do you have anything else in mind?
