Description
I think XLIFF format could be very useful addition for the library. It has the same benefits as PO files - it's standardized, widely supported, but beside of that it's also supporting ids in addition to the source string which is PO file doesn't.
I've started implementation of this one, but due to lack of time and interest (i'm not going to use it myself) i don't know when I would be able to finish this. So i want to publish this as is, and maybe someone picks it up where I've finished.

The issue describes an unfinished XLIFF implementation but names no files or tests. Start by locating the library's existing PO-file support and the partial XLIFF work; done means the library supports XLIFF while retaining IDs alongside source strings.
