Care to explain why you did not use a translation of the verb/noun
"stage"?  I actually was having a hard time to come up with Japanese
translation (not that I have plan to contribute to ja_JP.po), as the
shipping/logistics term "to stage" does not cleanly translate to the
language without unnecessary connotation that imply what is described is
something the our "index" actually is _not_.
