Pattern for spell-checking in po-files.

I made a little hook to po-mode to set up patterns for ispell so only
the translated strings and translator comments are checked.  This
might be a too trivial thing, but I haven't seen it elsewhere so I
thought I'd post it.  So I get some help with debugging! :-)

Maybe I will trigger someone to post their own much better ideas?

This is not perfect in any way.  Since the po file is in read only
mode, you can only use it to detect misspellings, but not fix them
on-the-fly in the ordinary ispell-mode way.

(defun po-mode-ispell-pattern ()
  "Add ispell patterns so that only translated messages are checked."
  (make-variable-buffer-local 'ispell-skip-region-alist)
  (add-to-list 'ispell-skip-region-alist '("^msgid" . "^msgstr"))
  (add-to-list 'ispell-skip-region-alist '("^#[:,]" . "\n")))
(add-hook 'po-mode-hook 'po-mode-ispell-pattern)
