Sure. I was more talking about a matter of principles. As translator,
I really hate when maintainers think they can touch or change my
translations, so as maintainer I always try to avoid this..:-)

What we should indeed do (but we discussed that with Tobias) is
maybe disabling fuzzy matching in Makefiles for the update-po
