Yes.
It was not a good solution for danish language at least. I would guess
the same to be the case for other languages.

I don't use the review function on Transifex on purpose because i think
it just keeps me from improving strings when i join projects on
Transifex and i want to correct a string but is unable to because it
have been reviewed.
