The context means you can treat the same string as two different strings,
thus enabling each to be translated differently. So, yes, you do care about
it, as that's exactly what you wanted.

However, although we successfully use context in various strings, because of
the way the menus are constructed, it is not possible in the case of
Mark/Mark.

I worked around the shortcoming mentioned above by changing Mark/Mark to
Marks/Mark.
