Re: switch from context to msgctxt?




for instance, in Catalan we distinguish if you "open folder" it refers
to a concret folder (i.e. you have already had chosen one and it's a
button to open it) or an un-concret one (i.e. it's a button that launch
the file chooser dialog)

Really, that's wild.

l10n it's not easy :)

Definitely not! *G* I think the right way to proceed is the same way as it has been so far (or should have been anyway). So that developers make context for the strings that are clearly ambiguous in english, e.g. "Load" verb/noun type stuff. And then translators will have to request it for for all other strings as needed.

An additional question, and the one I really meant to ask with my first email, is whether you all think that the fact that we are now making a "real/non-hack-like" way to make contexts will increase the need for education about how and when to use them?
