Hi Steven,
Check the current draft for XLIFF 2.0 and you will see that we don’t plan to use subflows inside a segment. A mechanism for representing subflows in their own units/segments has been designed.
Some time ago we voted against having an equivalent to the old <sub> element in XLIFF 2.0
Regards,
Rodolfo

Subject: RE: [xliff] Plural forms and XLIFF
In the ICU implementation of plurals, ICU docs do not recommend using substrings (subflows) but separate translated elements. In the ICU version of ChoiceFormat, ChoiceFormat is officially deprecated. http://userguide.icu-project.org/formatparse/messages#TOC-Complex-Argument-Types

Yes, PO plural forms are different, but ChoiceFormat is about plural forms too (http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/i18n/format/choiceFormat.html).
And, I agree, it is also about sub-flows.
The question the SC has is: How would one represent this and does the inline codes need more than the simple subflows attribute to handle it? (or should one even uses sub-flows in this case? Maybe that makes thing just more complicated than they need to be).
Cheers,
