Hey

Before converting windows to WindgetLayout has been started, someone told
that new *.ui files will allow us to render whole window dialogs and see
what the context is.

Now we have another big release with many converted dialogs, many
translations to do and with nothing to help us. In Polish word "General"
could be translated as "Ogólny", "Ogólnie", "Ogólne" ad so on. If I have
over 200 automatic translated strings and non possibilities to see words in
context, what should I do now (half year ago I manually searched and
compared differences in 4.0 and 4.1 and don't want come back to this
"solution")?
