That way, you don’t have to try to parse the comments to extract the keys when regenerating the JSON files. And it makes it possible to have more the one image with the same ‘msgid’ (homographs with different meaning, e.g. a verb and a noun). (I don’t think there’s currently any such strings, but there may be in the future.)

If you put ID in the `msgctxt` field, there won’t be a problem. It will look something like this:
msgctxt "orange-fruit.ogg"
msgid "orange"
msgstr "appelsin"
msgctxt "orange-colour.ogg"
msgid "orange"
msgstr "oransje"
In the PO edits, the translators will see the ‘msgctxt’ in a different pane than the one containing the original strings (`msgid`s). There is no risk that they will translate the filename.
