I would suggest to keep this under XML, because it is basically about that msgfmt doesn't implement the "merge" operation of itstool, but only the "join" operation:

For an initial description field like that:

  <description>
    <p>paragraph1
    </p>
    <p>paragraph2
    </p>
  </description>

The result file generated by msgfmt is like that:

  <description>
    <p>paragraph1
    </p>
    <p xml:lang="fr">para1</p>
    <p>paragraph2
    </p>
    <p xml:lang="fr">para2</p>
  </description>

But as described here:
https://www.freedesktop.org/software/appstream/docs/chap-CollectionData.html#tag-ct-description
description should be translated "as a whole".
