Indeed for KDE3, you have to choose.
So you could use a translator hint before the i18n call, a normal C or C++
starting with:
//i18n:
or
/*i18n:

I do not think that it is possible at all, as the uic compiler cannot handle
it.

For KDE4, point 1 could be solved in theory, but we have no call for it yet.
trunk/l10n is still for unstable KDE3 stuff. First trunk has to be cleared
from KDE3 stuff before using it with KDE4. I had planned to start this
discussion after KOffice 1.5 is released. (However I might not have time,
unlike what I had planned.)
