There are currently 119 bugs (including feature requests) reported for 
Lokalize:

https://bugs.kde.org/buglist.cgi?bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=CONFIRMED&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED&classification=Applications&list_id=2790874&order=Bug%20Number&product=lokalize&query_format=advanced

But many of them are large feature requests and difficult to fix. Here’s 
a small one, that *hopefully* shouldn’t be too difficult to implement, 
but that would IMHO be useful for us translators:

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=475163

BTW, Lokalize doesn’t really have a maintainer anymore, e.g., a person 
actually implementing new features and fixing bugs. (Though some people 
have done work on porting Lokalize to new versions of various frameworks 
and fixed compile-time bugs and warnings, i.e., making sure that we can 
actually still run Lokalize.)

The original author (2007–) was Nick Shaforostoff, but his last commit 
was in 2017 (he had one commit in 2017). Simon Depiets did quite a lot 
of work in 2018–2020, but hasn’t commited anything since then, though 
he’s still the default assignee for Lokalize in Bugzilla.
