I expect that dedicated po-editing tools can lookup corresponding code lines, which gives the answer if no hint is attached at least in this specific case. Anyway, thinking calmly, since we are not about to edit these messages, it's unlikely to happen on purpose, I think. So I don't mean to push this so hard.
