One thing I've noticed happening very often which is a bit annoying is a
warning message that says "This translation is currently locked for
updates.". As it says, it locks the component for a few minutes in which
I can't do anything, and then it gives back control. I would categorize
it as a technical problem but I'm not sure why it happens.
