They are all affected because any of them could contain a '%' in the
name or even the shortcut part since the whole string is used in all cases
to ensure the shortcut isn't separated from the name.
Probably best to just add another rule that looks something like:
/_(".*[%].*")/i\
// no-c-format
which should put a comment on the line immediately before the gettext
call. I don't think this would break anything because IIRC all the
gettext strings are on the first line of the function they are called
within. Otherwise, we might be able to do something a little yuckier:
s,\(_(".*[%].*")\),/* no-c-format */ \1,
