Hi all docs' contributors and helpers!

First of all I must admit that I al more than a bit lazy, and quite nitpicking...

On my way of reviewing the French po file dedicated to the documentation, I'm afraid by all these "untranslated" items that appear due to some inconsistency in the English version. Since we now can translate variable names or comments included in the lilypond examples or snippets that are included in the vast material, I would have liked not to encounter twice (or more) the same assertion like:

#. Documentation/user/fundamental.itely:1012 (comment)
msgid "Set stems, etc, down"
vs.
#. Documentation/user/fundamental.itely:1074 (comment)
msgid "set stems, etc down"

or

#. Documentation/user/fundamental.itely:2274 (variable)
msgid "sopranoMusic"
vs.
#. Documentation/user/fundamental.itely:1239 (variable)
#. Documentation/user/tweaks.itely:3138 (variable)
msgid "SopMusic"


In other words, I would like that arises a "good practice" in documenting things, which would be that the one who deals with a specific section adopts a single spelling and/or syntax for each equivalent assertion.

Nevertheless, it' true that I could invest some time in tracking and modifying those entries, but...

Please forgive me if I'm too bothering, but I think it makes sense.

Cheers
Jean-Charles
