There's a S2_5 bug report that seems to be related to translations,
reported specifically against fr.po:
http://gna.org/bugs/index.php?23008

The problem is that gtk and qt use different syntax to mark
accelerators. As long as the original texts have accelerators, there
are client specific msgstrs differing by the accelerator. Strings that
do not have accelerators in the original text, are identical between
the clients and thus currently have only one msgstr. The problem is
when the translation adds accelerator suitable for one client but not
the other to such a string.
At least in some cases accelerators are pointless in that the
activities already have another key combination assigned.
Would you translators prefer that such strings get qualified by the
gui -> same string needs to be translated separately for both clients,
or that it's forbidden to add accelerators to them?
