Well, that's acceptable: the tool could just print a warning when it 
finds strings mixins that it can't understand. I think the tool doesn't 
necessarily have to work on 100% of cases to be useful. If it can work 
correctly on the changes that it does do, and print a warning to the 
user to manually change/check the other remaining spots, it should still 
be useful.
