Agreed. Someone made an interesting point here:
http://groups.google.com/group/symfony-users/browse_thread/thread/d69957ca379dc47d/9b14198d4d13a70b?lnk=gst&q=translation#9b14198d4d13a70b
"For example, if we translate the word 'room', we don't know exactly if it
means a room or space in the text it is used.
So I want to find a tool which can show dynamically the context, for
example, display the whole text which contains the keyword. "
It is indeed a problem when translating our apps from english into french.
I would much prefer to do something like:
"admin.contact.create.success.created" instead of __("Contact has been
created") etc.
