+1 to Brian's proposal.

Sorry I haven't read your post Brian before answering Heikki. Hope I didn't mess up the thread too much.

Note for fun: as it happens, "Triage" *is* a French word so that's one problem I didn't have ;)

Cheers,

Hey Guys,
So this is the final comments I am going to have on this subject till post-Preview since this
is sucking up to much valuable bug fixing time on my part.

1. The use of mnemonics as it relates to localization is not ideal. However, mnemonics in strings are the "accepted" way. So I would like to do some research
     to see how other projects handle the issue in regards to l10n.

2. "Dashboard" and "Triage" can appear in the Chandler.pot as long
     as we provide the correct context (comments) to prevent incorrect
     literal localizations.

3. Branding and localization are separate feature sets. A French version
    of Chandler is a French version of Chandler. If we want to
    provide branding abilities in 0.7.1 we should isolate it from the
    localization module and provide an alternate means of changing
    "Chandler", "Open Source Applications Foundation", etc.
