            Bug ID: 417428
           Summary: Add ability to search by the Files Unit Metadata in
                    Lokalize
           Product: lokalize
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: sdepi...@gmail.com
          Reporter: herzensch...@gmail.com

  Target Milestone: ---

I was translating www_www.po and wasn't finding the strings that were missing
for the 5.18 announcement to get 100% translated.

Ilya Bizyaev mentioned posieve can filter strings in such a way that allows to
find all strings related to the 5.18 announcement, the same string that appears
in the Unit Metadata pane for Files in Lokalize.

With the following command provided by Ilya, the Brazilian l10n team managed to
find the missing strings:

posieve find-messages -scomment:'plasma-5.18.0.php' www_www.po -slokalize

Which, when run after having Lokalize open, searches for the correct string and
sends the results to Lokalize so the translator can find all missing strings.

This is a really useful functionality that would help fully translate KDE
announcements in time. Currently the only way to verify whether something is
missing is to wait a full day until scripty runs at around midnight, which is
really inconvenient as there are at most only 5 days before the announcement
for translators to do their job prior. Spreading the word on pology to all
localization teams is possible, but it would be more efficient to simply
implement this functionality in Lokalize.
