No, you should implement it and send a patch ;) Or file a feature 
request to the tracker, but see below:

I'm afraid this wouldn't be practical. The TM stores _sentences_ and 
compares by them, so if you would select any subphrase that isn't a 
complete sentence, you wouldn't get any (useful) hits. And if you got 
all translations of complete sentences with "backup" in them, it 
wouldn't be very useful either, it would produce lot of noise.

The real solution is to implement compendium(s) support.

Vaclav
