Hi,
  I'm the translator for the Spanish version of Inkscape and I just got an email from a user asking why the names of the colours in the swatches weren't translated. I didn't know what he was talking about so I checked and found out that when hovering over a color in the swatch at the bottom of the Inkscape window a tooltip is shown in the status bar with the name of the colour that's in the .gpl file.
  Just out of curiosity: could it be a feature to add in the future, I mean the translation of the colours?

  Thanks in advance,
