Problem/Motivation
There is the string 'Scale' used in two different context in core;
- Used as title of the number of digits in number.module.
- Used as label of an image effect in image.module.
In Japanese, and other languages, different translations are required for each.
Proposed resolution
Add a context to the string.
Remaining tasks
none
User interface changes
Interface translation will change.
API changes
none

yoroy commentedSpreadsheet apps call these "decimal places" or "number of decimals". The current patch has too much overlap with the description.

sutharsan commentedThis patch uses 'decimal places' as context. Number module has now two occurrences of "Scale", both receive this context.
