           Summary: Strings do not have helpful context

Greetings, translator here.

Currently Kaidan strings do not seem to have the recommended User Interface
Markers[1] to indicate the location of a specific user-interface string. Adding
these markers add a lot to the quality of the translation, since it allows the
translators to distinguish and tailor the capitalisation patterns and other
possible language-specific rules. Currently it looks like there is some sort of
automatic context[3] added, but it does not help at all.

As a bonus point, it might be a good idea to review the updated HIG[2]  for
writing texts, and using the specific punctuation and mark patterns for a
better presentation and accessibility of the user interface strings.
