IIRC poEdit likes to sort messages by status. That makes it harder for
me to understand what do the messages mean, because we lose some
context. For instance, the label of a menu item or button usually comes
near its tooltip, and so do the short and the long descriptions of a
gconf pair. Besides, when you translate a message its status is changed,
and so does the place (in the list) where it belongs. That's why I'd
rather have messages sorted by ID, and then navigate through them with a
"next untranslated/fuzzy" shortcut.

Couldn't agree more.

Again, I agree.
