It is often observed that the way strings are chunked and translated
sometimes distort the actual usage context when they show up on the
screen. This is most likely to happen in the less used dialogs or,
menus and, sometimes even applications/activities. The distortion in
context can also be accompanied by an increase/decrease in the actual
translated string leading to a break-down of the actual UI design.

And, that is all I am going to add since I don't appreciate the "I
think this list is critical" mail that I read sometime back on the
list.

The Pootle instance for Sugarlabs does have this and, runs fine. It is
just that most folks don't seem to use it.
