The bugreport  http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=312802
only talks about two messages having double meanings.
I wonder how many there are in total in gnome-games. It can't be all
that many?

If gnome-games is split up, will it not mean we would have to
translate: 
msgid "quit"  and other common messages for every single game?

It would seem to me that splitting gnome-games into different domains is
overkill when there is a problem with just two messages. Wouldn't adding
a context to the offending messages be an easier way to solve this?
