Title:
Need context variants of i18n.tr and i18n.dtr
Status in “ubuntu-ui-toolkit” package in Ubuntu:
In Progress
Bug description:
Sometimes you need to show a small string like "All" but you need to
give it a context so translations can translate it differently than
other "All" occurrences in the same domain.
Example, in the phone-app we have two occurrences of "All", one is
about Contacts, the other about Calls, so in Spanish you need the
first "All" translated as "Todos" and the second one as "Todas"
So you would write i18n.ctr("All Calls", "All") and i18n.ctr("All
Contacts", "All") in the code so there would be the possibility of
having different translations.
So we basically need
