Redoing my Italian translation. Loaded the .po file, but it seems to
ignore it quietly, so I am redoing my work.

Also, many strings are present both with and without punctuation: Now
I am seeing both "Search" and "Search:". It would be easier if
end-of-phrase punctuation was kept outside the translatable strings
