Re: [Evolution-hackers] [Evolution-Hackers]#49844:New-menu should have fully qualified names

[Benjamin Kahn <xkahn ximian com>]

Yes, but in English having the "New" repeated again and again is
awkward.  It seems the best solution would be to use the fully qualified
names on languages with this problem.  I understand that gettext does
string folding on strings that are the same and so it's difficult to
make sure these strings are unique.  Is there a solution to this
problem?
