Pootle's checks are simple (and stupid). For example in some context
text between [ ] brackets is a placeholder, while in other context [ ]
brackets have no special meaning, they are just plain text. In .ulf
files everything between [ ] should be left in English. So do not
translate [Time], [Date] etc. On the other hand, [None] and [User]
come from .src files, and they are translatable. #NAME? and #MACRO?
are spreadsheet error codes, and they are translatable.

It would be good to collect the most annoying false positives and
design new checks (in Wiki for example). When there are 1000 false
positives, noone will go through them. We need to make Pootle check
useful. It involves some programming work, but the main task is the
design. If we find out the rules, anyone with medium level Python
skills can implement them.

Best regards,
Andras
