            Bug ID: 1193747
           Summary: RFE: Glossary should have context and description
                    fields
           Product: Zanata
           Version: 3.6
         Component: Component-Logic
          Severity: medium
          Assignee: djansen at redhat.com
          Reporter: dchen at redhat.com

Description of problem:
It is quite often that same Glossary term carries different meaning in
different context. 

For example,
"Never" in NetworkManager connection list means "not yet" (in Chinese, 尚未),
but in xscreensaver, as shown in 

  certain precautions had to be taken, among them that xscreensaver never runs
as root. 

   "Never" should be translated with "never ever" (in Chinese, 永不)

Even if they carry the same meaning, they may have different translation
conventions amongst projects.

Like menu item "Help" are translated differently between GNOME and KDE.

So to translators,
Context (or project) shows them the project convention; while
Description shows them the definition of the term.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
3.6.0

Expected results:
After search terms input, 
Glossary UI should be able to show the context (or project) and description of
the corresponding glossary.
