[Padre-dev] Translation problems with positional parameters in msgids

I was wondering when we'd finally run into this problem, I actually
expected to hit it earlier.

The ultimate solution to this problem is to use something like
http://search.cpan.org/~ferreira/Locale-Maketext-1.13/ which can do
language-specific adaptation.

Unfortunately, the amount of work required to add support for a
language to maketext is potentially horrible. So better, but not
really useful for adding support for two dozen languages (unless we
added dependencies on the maketext modules).

Fortunately, that is a problem for another day.

In the short term, you can probably just use the positional syntax for
your parameters.
