Column arrangement
File: officecfg/registry/data/org/openoffice/Office/UI.po
Locations:
BibliographyCommands.xcu#..BibliographyCommands.UserInterface.Commands..uno_Bib/Mapping.Label.value.text
Is this "column" a column of flowing text, or a table column (vertical
set of cells), or possibly something else? Translation will be
different, depending on which it is...
I know I asked before, but I repeat it: Is there a way to determine
the location in the UI, or do I need to rely on the surrounding
strings for context? The preceding entry, "Record", suggests that it
is a table column, akin to a database field, and the bibliography
context does support that, but those clues are not entirely conclusive.

We are talking about databases. If you have a structure like
Name | LastName | Nationality
John | Smith | American
Andrea | Pescetti | Italian
then "column" in this context means the "Nationality", "Name", or
"LastName".

There isn't a way. A KeyID build can help, but doesn't save you from the
step "Where in the UI does this string appear?". It helps with
disambiguation though.
