Comment(by Denis-de-Bernardy):

 @Demetria: still, it seems to me that instead of trying to standardize
 strings like this, a simpler approach would be to check, at the php level,
 if there is a plugin translation, and if not trying the wp translation;
 or, at the po/mo level, if there is a wp translation for a particular
 string and pre-filling it when generating the files.

 The php approach would amount to falling back to the default text domain
 when the localization of the plugin or theme is not around.

 Or maybe I'm not completely understanding this ticket. If so, just ignore
 the suggestion.
