Yes, and since the translators usually add the language code to all IDs,
this would in your case become "-Drootid=rlsnotes20-it". But there's no
technical necessity for that; you could also keep the id at "rlsnotes20"
or make it "note-rilascia" or "nrilascia".

I don't understand that - isn't the stress on the "i" in both modes
(indicativo and congiuntivo)?

Yes, that's a good solution - but too bad about the beautiful congiuntivo! :-)
