[Live-demo] Translation planning doc - misaligned column "notes for off-line translation"

Oscar,
I'm afraid what you are asking for stretches Google docs beyond the 
capabilities of a spreadsheet.

At the moment, the status of the spreadsheet is automatically driven 
from doc versions coming from subversion, and doc review status (from 
another spreadsheet). The downside of this automation (as you note) is 
that line numbers change with each status update, which means your 
manually entered information doesn't align.

The workaround which is being used on the "es" worksheet is to copy the 
values of the "File" column into a separate column (J). Now the 
automatically updated lines will still change, but the static lines will 
stay aligned. (Note, by convention, I use BLACK for cells with a formula 
and BLUE for cells without a formula).
