Hello

I have a request. I'm sure it's already mentioned before by other translators, 
but I'd like to ask it again. Is it possible for the people managing the site 
to make all monstrous big strings into lots of small ones? At the moment, it's 
a hell for translators to have to search for a modified URL or word in a 
"string" that takes up a whole page!

I'm also thinking about the people who would like to translate on line using 
Transifex (including myself). Transifex doesn't use "fuzzy" translations and 
erases the whole translation of every fuzzy one. This means we have to 
re-translate EVERYTHING every time a string is edited only one character! This 
is no problem for me if the strings are only 10-20 words long, but like i 
said... a whole page to re-translate is a bit too much.
Also, a lot of small strings are easier to manage in my opinion. And if a 
source string is edited, on the web site there won't be a completely 
untranslated page, but only that specific sentence/string.

I understand if it will be difficult to edit all strings in the original .pot 
file, but once it's done, it will benefit all translations/translators/readers!

Maybe it's easier to create an offline .pot at first, to give translators the 
chance to copy their translations in (so they don't lose the already translated 
strings), or do the reverse... back up all current .po files and create new 
ones from the start?

Thanks in advance!

Regards
