Hi, I wrote little fix that tranforms the string into format I figured out using other tranlated examples, 1 string divided to three ".." blocks. Is this the kind of format you was asking for? Thanks :)

@Jan:
Yes, your patch resolves my request.
Strings sequence the '_("No clipart named"), keywords, _("was found.")' restricts its grammar and it makes difficulty in Japanese translation.

Thanks

Thanks for your patch Jan!

The correction committed in the trunk (revision 11251) is a bit different. The patch you did was a good start, but it was cleaner to split the two sentences and remove XML elements (including the color attribute value that must not be translated) from the translatable string.
