The goal is to handle original and translated text in place, in the Lazarus IDE.

I was wondering if it would be possible to spot the translation of the components caption or text properties you enter.
Need a caption or text property editor is like working as a po-editor. This editor would be able to save the resource strings in the po files into the traditional way, but later in the Lazarus IDE, if I change some caption or text properties in a particular form, writes over the old one and update the translation in the po files. Normally other resource strings would remains working as usual.

Sorry for my English ...

gettext mostly works with the text as key, so afaik no, that is not possible.

Some editors and tools do keep source location (file+linenumber) and/or  property (form.component.property) name syntax in comments in the .po. It might be possible to build something on that.

I mostly used dxgettext and GORM though, not lazarus and poedit.
