Comment:

 No, semantics aren't the same. A lazy i18n string depends on the context
 and this is lost when the string is stored in a DB. I'll rather be warned
 (with an explosion, if it has to be) when I try doing something stupid.
 "Silent data loss" is a strong description for what's happening if a lazy
 string is translated upon entering storage, but I'd still argue that's
 what is happening here. And silent data loss is bad(tm).

 I'll mark this design decision needed, hopefully someone from core will
 weigh in on this issue.
