A new message could be considered (or is part of) a new feature, but what about typos, wrong messages or badly formulated existing messages?

I'm not entirely sure, but when changing just one character in a message, is it considered a new message when regenerating the po files, or does gettext notice it's only a small change to an existing message and keep the translations of the original message attached to it?

Yes, it is considered as new message, because it is hard to automatically decide whether it is just typo or changes meaning. If you're just fixing typo, you can replace it in .po files as well to keep existing translations.
