May be we need ggettext

["Sergey I. Panov" <sipan mit edu>]

I found yet another bug translation releated bug. The menu hints do
not get translated. While it is easy ( amounts to adding 6 characters
in gnome-app-helper.c) to fix for the application generated hints, it
is not easy to get hins of the gnome "configurable" menu items
translated. The fix I see is ugly.

If dgettext(PACKAGE, ... ) was acting as gettext if it failed to find
translation in the PACKAGE domain, there would have been no problem
whatsoever. What you think about adding to GNOME ggettext function --
one that would search in the specified domain and then in the default
domain? It can easily be implemented using dgettext and strcmp .
