2.6 has a macro that lets you put "comments" into
strings-to-be-translated so that you can keep them from being folded
with other similar strings. So you can do:
Q_("New|Appointment")
which will show up as "Appointment" in English, but the translator can
translate it to something different from other instances of
"Appointment".
(Although I think it's currently only usable in C files, not .server
files or any other XML stuff, so we'd need to do some intltool hacking.)
