NativeTung – http://www.nativetung.com – is a powerful solution that works with the Drupal CMS platform and is currently in private beta. Drupal makes it easy to achieve the following with the NativeTung Globalizer: Globalize —> Optimize —> Analyze your site for increased ROI and reach across the language barrier.

I need it. For now I will make a ugly hack, with using strings such as: t('STATICPAGE_LOGIN') "faking" a defined message. Then I use the string override function if I wish to modify them. It's not optimal, far from it. But it should work. Later on I will make it possible for me to categorize strings using t(). Labor intensive, but it means I will be able to categorize STATICPAGE_LOGIN as category "Static page titles" in the GUI. Thoughts on my solution? Another posibility is to simple make my own t() function, but that would require me to rewrite: t() locale() And make a GUI for the new solution. Better, but consuming.

But as for the context, I don't understand why it hadn't been added to core long time ago. It's real pain in the ass to make sites in Russian and Ukrainian langues because lack of context translations.
