   * [[ch:fields:QID]] mandatory global question ID: could e.g. be a 32-bit (or longer) integer. There could be some attempt to put some meaning into this ID, but it is probably easier simply to assign a random number to it, only ensuring that there are no duplicates.

Here we need to specify just what those answers are, which will not be language-dependent. The enabling answers are determined by the enabled question, not by the enabling question.
