Nicolas, AFAIK this does not happen by default. The user must click on
the paragraph to have it moved to the translation. So this is hardly a
CX issue.

Can't comment on the rest of the issues, but I can add one more: I've
had several reports for ro.wp of "lost" translations. Unfortunately I
don't have enough data to log a bug. They just said: "my translations
were lost". Perhaps some performance issues with the server or some
patchy Internet connections and not enough caching?
