There's actually not much of a drawback here, translations already _are_ at a rather low level, and there is next to no QA related measures in the DDTSS: anonymous people click-"review" translations of anonymous people without any chance to send over feedback or hints or blacklist certain known-bad translators or mark them specificly need-review by certain people that are known to produce decent translations. Personally I am much more thinking of removing DDTP support from the packages site at all than to going on with this - in Debian area - absolutely uncommon no-quality approach. Especially since several discussions didn't improve anything along that lines over the years. And as a packages site maintainer I don't want to have this approach continued and even endorsed through the system I am responsible for. This has to stop, here and now, one way or another.
