In-browser translation services often damage placeholders and HTML, this
is experienced in several ways:
* Sometimes the HTML tag names or attribute names are translated
* Sometimes the class names are translated
* Sometimes extra whitespace is introduced into the HTML tag (ie. `</
a>`)
* Sometimes the placeholders are split up (ie. `% 1 $ s`)
* Sometimes the HTML is re-ordered incorrectly
We can fix most of that by using a `<span class="notranslate">` around the
untranslatable text, which solves it at least for Google Translate. The
HTML5 spec also contains `translate="no"` but I can't find anything that
supports that (yet).
