Actually, if you open any PO file you have, you will notice that it 
begins with :
1- comment lines holding info like the translator list, the filename etc.
2- an empty msgid string
3- a non empty msgstr with more info about the file (like character 
encoding and the application used to generate it such as kbabel or 
whatever info)

The association (comments, msgid, msgstr) is no less than a PO message. 
Therefore, PO format stores the file info in a regular PO message. There 
is no need to model this differently, parser wise.I don't believe the 
treatment of header data should be different in the database either. But 
we can decide to do that otherwise if we have a valid reason.

Besides the parser, is there anything I can do to be of help ?
