Sure. But how can we make the distinction between before and after translation when looking at the document just from an ITS viewpoint? I guess what I'm wondering is if we could not simplify things by applying the rule to the content (whether it's already translated or not) rather than a specific stage. After all, I assume the cases where the restrictions apply only to the translation are limited.

Hopefully others will have some input on this.
