Thanks John for your useful feedback.

There have been a couple of similar suggestions (or at least in that
direction) in the translators list.

This would require non-trivial development work in Launchpad, i.e.
implementing a new feature. As with other technical requests, if you've
got any further ideas regarding the implementation, I'd suggest opening
a separate thread either in ubuntu-translators or launchpad-dev and take
it from there.

Thanks!

Regards,
David.
