Description Eran Roz 2013-12-31 17:46:13 UTC
Magic words such as ifexper in Hebrew have spaces, and Translate auto replace spaces to _.
Again, such changes go live on Wikimedia wikis and many pages are broken. (see bug:46613 - once happend on March, and again today).
Translate must never replace _ with spaces, and there should be a unitest to validate it.

I've reworded the summary. I think we should take care of this in the parser.

There is a similar issue, that I know exists, but do not know the details of, that requires us to have an NS_MAIN definition for RTL languages. We should fix both issues.
