Nice consideration, we can take care for all this stuff for the 2.1
version.

ABout the Key poit the idea to add a space sound not so good, where
did you find the problem? Can you give the files and lines where there
is this different use for the single Key words? Maybe we can find a
way to add a : at some Key meke them show different in the pot file.

If others locale team agree on the various suggestion i can arrange to
make a series of patch to be commited in the 2.1 release.
