Discrepancy between pylupdate and Qt Linguist

[Detlev Offenbach]

Hi Phil,

I just tried the new pylupdate (actually just translation_file.py) and 
must report, that the file generated by pylupdate and Qt linguist are 
still different. pylupdate indents all context elements by 4 spaces 
whereas Qt linguist does not indent them at all.

Would it be possible to align the bahavior of pylupdate with Qt linguist?

Regards,
Detlev
