When Nokia used Qt, we used to call this translating from "Engineering
English" to "proper English". In some projects, the source strings always
started with "!!", which helped identify what wasn't yet translated in pre-
release builds.
That's actually pretty nice. Also helps to automatically find missing
translations popping up in the GUI using Squish or a similar tool.
