Public bug reported:

Translators are having trouble understanding the context and thus being
able to translate the following strings:

- Calling Line Presentation
- Calling Line Restriction
- Connected Line Presentation
- Connected Line Restriction

I'd suggest to add a translator comment explaining what they are and
where they appear. A translator comment is simply a regular code comment
put above the line containing the translatable text. They are then
extracted from the code and shown for context to translators in
Launchpad.

E.g.

// TRANSLATORS: this means X and appears in Y
text: i18n("Calling Line Presentation")
