It means "never empty".

This could be a solution to the plural problem:

        // The translation is aware of plural forms. i18ncp uses the first integer argument to
        // distinguish plural forms. The first and the second argument are QString. So we use
        // sizeList.size() as third argument to provide proper support for plural forms. This 
        // works, although it is never referenced with %3 in the string itself. Although we
        // provide english strings only for "1 item" and for "more than 1 item", but i18ncp
        // will silently expand to as many plural forms as necesarry in the target language.
        m_description = i18ncp(
          "@info/plain This is the description of the cursor themes. The first argument is the "
            "original description that comes from the index.theme file. The second argument is "
            "the list of available sizes, which is never empty. This string is localized with "
            "support for plural forms: You can make different singular/plural translations "
            "depending on the number (!) of list items in the second argument.",
          "%1 (Size: %2)"            /* only 1 item in sizeListString      */
          "%1 (Available sizes: %2)" /* more than 1 item in sizeListString */
          ).arg(m_description).arg(sizeliststring).arg(sizeList.size());

I'll test this after holiday.
