That's exactly what I think after being working in translations after a 
so long, imo with some easy to collaborate tools it's easy to end up 
with a mix of patches with different translated terms for the same 
original ideas.
Sometimes i have to launch software to see what is presented to the user 
so I can decide on how to translate. If it's presented a random sentence 
to translate in a browser the collaboration it's there but the end 
result may lack consistency and quality of text.
