Since I often translate SDLXLIFF files in another program (Wordfast Classic, to be exact), even though I do have a licence for Trados 2011 and have it installed on my computer, I'm often bothered by the fact that the meaning of tags in segments in an SDLXLIFF file are not visible inside the translatable segment.
