            Bug ID: 169672
           Summary: Make it possible to use WEB_UI_STRING macros to mark
                    translatable strings in glib based ports

WEB_UI_STRING macros are currently used by Cocoa based ports and Windows port. For other ports it simply returns the given string, but it's not translated. In the GTK+ port we have all translatable strings from LocalizedStrings.cpp copied in LocalizedStringsGtk.cpp to use the glib macros to mark them as translatable. In most of the cases the strings are exactly in the same, in some others (the context menu ones) the string only differs in the mnemonics used by GTK, and only in a few cases the strings are different. We could remove most of that duplication if strings used by WEB_UI_STRING were marked as translatable in glib based ports too.
