Comment:

 Okay, this is a non-issue. As Ramiro points out, the fuzzy annotation
 prevents the string from being used as a translation. However, it should
 be kept in the PO file because it saves translators work, particularly in
 the update phase, as they can see what a likely match is going to be.
 Particularly in crowd-sourced translations, where multiple people are
 going to be working on the same file, that's a huge win. In single-sourced
 cases, it's never going to be a hinderance, either, once people understand
 what fuzzy means.

 So, no, we're not going to provide an option not to include those. They're
 normal parts of GNU PO files and experienced translators expect them, are
 used to working with them and gain benefit from them. Less experienced
 translators become more experienced as time goes by.
