If we want to go that way, Andras Timar might have an idea about where 
to store this stuff.

Afaik there is hardly any "fully working FOSS-based xliff toolchain" 
that includes translation editors and complext xliff files.

Translate toolkit has a quite good support for XLIFF <-> po conversion 
(as long as you do not use advanced xliff features). If we want to go 
that way, I could test the conversion and how this works for a translator.
