But i'd have to translate translateable things between <screen> tags, right ?
<replaceable> tags only makes you sure that you can translate it.
I think that is only purpose of these tags, beside text between these tags is italic in HTML.

As I said i didn't invented them, and i'm not authorised to force anything. But it is/was messy in 
*.xml files because <replaceable> tags were in some places and weren't in other places were they should be.

And I'm translator too and i think these tags doesn't do any harm to us.
