+You will forget your PO when you are translating a complete page and
+you need the context of the first paragraph to translate the 4th para.
+or when you realize that in your language you better place the 3rd
+para before the second and take the last line of the 3rd para as first
+line of the 2nd para. Something which happens all the time in full
+text translation of larger docs.
+
+Anyhow, nobody will ask you to use this or that method. When the time
+comes I count on all of you to look at the options and then I tell you
+what to use :) No, kidding !
