Title:
  [Translation] "Left" and "Right" must be translated differently in
  different contexts

Bug description:
  In 17.10 artful in GNOME Control Center, there are two places where
  words "Left" and "Right" are encountered: the Mouse settings and the
  Dock settings. Both of the words have only one item to translate in
  Rosetta with indication that they are located in two different places
  in the sources:

  "Located in ../panels/mouse/gnome-mouse-properties.ui.h:4 ../panels/ubuntu/cc-ubuntu-panel.c:417"
  "Located in ../panels/mouse/gnome-mouse-properties.ui.h:5 ../panels/ubuntu/cc-ubuntu-panel.c:419"

  When translating in Russian, the words "Left" and "Right" must be translated differently in these two places. One translation for both contexts leads to inconsistent and ridiculous result.
  I can guess that this is also valid for some other languages, not only Russian.

  Please make two independent translations in Rosetta for "Left" and
  "Right" in these two different contexts.
