 > >  * `Dotorg_Plugins_Tracker::process_code_i18n()`: should we also have
 logic to use a plugin's own committed PO/MO files if any,
 [https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/jetpack/trunk/languages like
 Jetpack]? What if they don't have a committed POT file, and ours somehow
 doesn't match their PO/MO files (doubtful but possible)?

 should be to import them into GP and remove them from the plugin.

 What are the implications of this, in terms of plugins that already have
 their own GlotPress install (or other system) elsewhere, that people
 already work on? And who want to keep on using it?
