Phil, please include option three. That would allow to extract the 
translations with one command instead of several. Option 1 (the current 
one) would be the most complex because one would have to ensure, that 
the .ui file is compiled first annd pylupdate executed thereafter. 
Option 2 would be a comprimise but would require lupdate to be present 
on the machine and would also need two commands. So Option 3 is the most 
straight forward one.
