I guess one thing that I’m kind of worried about is that offline 
translation will gradually become a second-class citizen. If one asks 
for a clarification for a string in Weblate, and someone adds a 
response, that response is only visible for the people *using* Weblate. 
It’s stored in some opaque database, instead of being stored in the 
actual translation files. Until now, we would ask on this mailing list 
(or in Bugzilla, or the application’s mailing list), and someone 
knowledgable would add a comment or a message context in the source 
code. This would then be become visible both for the developers and all 
translators, no matter which tool they used (Lokalize, Poedit, …).
