            Bug ID: 107291
           Summary: Notebookbar titles capitalized non-suitably for l10n
                    purposes
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 5.4.0.0.alpha0+ Master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: UI
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: miles at filmsi.net

Description:
In the last week the master received new commands for notebookbar where
captions of notebookbar subtabs (I expect this from po file, I haven't seen the
UI itself yet) are divided according to en-US context key, e.g. "Edit" is split
into two localizable strings, "E" and "dit". Another one, "Format" is split
into "F", "o" and "rmat". Since this might be OK for English, the system should
support also all other 100+ languages and their context keys for these
commands, but it does not.
I propose all these must be divided into three groups "pre-string",
"context-key" and "after-string", even if some of these will be empty in
English. This would allow for better l10n, if you cannot think of any other way
to code these context keys in a less complicated way.

Since this is not a l10n bug, but a UI bug preventing proper l10n process, I am
filing it under UI.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Translate po files of UI for 5.4.0.a1
2. Open sw/uiconfig/swriter/ui.po (notebookbar_groupedbar_full.ui)
3. Find strings like "F", "o" and "rmat"

Actual Results:  
Labels in notebookbar cannot be properly localized (as in menu bar).

Expected Results:
Labels in notebookbar can be properly localized, as in menu bar.


Reproducible: Always

User Profile Reset: No
