I mean is there even a technical support in 
Pootle for the context variants, as described?

Also, could you please elaborate on the XLIFF 
process you mentioned You said: "But if you 
download an XLIFF version for offline 
translation then Sasha's suggestions would be 
listed as alternative translations.  You can use 
Virtaal to edit these offline XLIFF files." Does 
this mean to even use these "alternative 
translations", one has to switch to the XLIFF 
format?
