Comment (by jonas.kirilla):
If we were to take the spaces out of the string ("Install progress:"
instead of "Install progress: ") and instead append those two spaces
after the B_TRANSLATE() lookup this could possibly violate the rules of
some other language.
(Compare, for example, how French demands a space -before- the colon,
which makes it unwise to break out a trailing colon from
B_TRANSLATE()-strings.)
Ideally HTA would highlight leading and trailing spaces. (In the source
string, I guess. And perhaps also warn if they are missing in the
translated string.)
