Hey, some time has passed since the last discussion of this topic (context in translations), and I have now decided to commit my GLib patch, which adds a 2 argument macro for translations with context. So instead of
Q_("context|id") it will soon be possible to write C_("context", "id") And, using GNU gettext >= 0.15, you will be able to convert both forms into msgctxt "context" msgid "msgid" msgstr "" by calling xgettext --keyword=Q_:1g --keyword=C_:1c,2 >From a quick search, it appears that at least some translation tools support msgctxt nowadays (kbabel, pootle, translate, launchpad).
