Hi, with 5.1 help strings I see changes like this (this one is hd_id3156150 from helpcontent2/source/text/writer.po): old version in 5.0: "<link href="text/shared/01/02220000.xhp" name="ImageMap">ImageMap</link>" in 5.1 it gets changed to: "<link href="text/shared/01/02220000.xhp" name="ImageMap"><embedvar_href="text/shared/01/02220000.xhp#imagemap_part_title"/></link>"
In another help text string (hd_id3150502 in /helpcontent2/source/text/shared/01.po) "ImageMap Editor" got changed with 5.1 into: "<variable id=\"imagemap_part_title\">ImageMap</variable> Editor">" I guess the idea is that with the compilation of help files and the build process of LO the second "ImageMap" string will get mapped into the first string. Looks great for English source strings. But ... some if not most languages, unlike English, have inflections and/or do not use all-title-words capitalization, which makes this help text programming for most of languages unusable and even disrupting. So, for such languages, what should l10n teams do when re-translating these updated strings (again this is causing unneeded work for translation teams, but I really do not want to go back there, I guess l10n teams in this open-source project are doomed with it)? Do we leave the "ImageMap Editor" in the first string translated as it was in 5.0 (with just words and no additional xml tags), and also leave the translations of strings where this part_title strings get used as it was - without those part_titles, with plain translated keywords? Or should we wait with localization as these strings will be returned to their former state (and actually no new localization effort is required)?
