The NC_() documentation you quote adds that "To get the translated 
string, you should call g_dpgettext2() at runtime" but GTK (GTK2 at 
least) doesn't do this in gtk_action_group_add_actions(), it uses 
g_dgettext(), so there is not support for a message context.

It looks like the alternatives would be to have the actionEntries table 
non static, which may be somewhat complicated, or to use "Move" for move 
as a noun and "verb|Move" for move as a verb. The latter seems the more 
practical choice.
