Comment:

 Without referring to the wordpress definition of an excerpt, is a plugin
 callback function (e.g. shortcode callback) can determine from which
 context it is being called, then the callback function can do a better
 customisation.

 For example, when a "trimmed version" of a post is called, shortcode
 callback can skip all translation and return empty string. This should
 work in places such as the_content() and the_excerpt().
