I can't say I'm all that positive about possibly having to retranslate
all strings, last time I checked it was 469 strings.
I can understand the will to correct the strings in the code, but if
it breaks thousands of translated strings in the process I would
definitley prefer an "english to english" translation instead. No end
user would know the difference.
If Qt Linguist is smart enough to pair up corrected strings in the
code with the old translation (which only would require reconfirmation
of the translation), I'm less apprehensive.
Cheers,
Daniel
