If they aren't used, why they're enabled for translation?

Ok.

I'd like to give credit to the translators work and the guy/team who
worked with this small deadline deserves to have his work used but
this is more up to Robert then me.

Yes. I'll look at them and upload.

I was in touch with Sebastian Dröge <slomo@debian.org>, at
#gnome-debian IRC channel, but we couldn't talk in last days. Since
we're near of migration deadline I gave up at getting it reverted now
(mostly due the tests that it might involve) and will postpone it to
just after Beta 2 is out.
Last time we talked, he spot that this was his prefered option if
upstream didn't come to a solution in near future. I'll mail to the
bug report with that information too.

Looks like Jeremy is looking at it. I agree that this needs to get
in. Let's see how it goes and get it done.
