 I noticed a couple of times that a translation gets fuzzied if the
 original line does not contain an ending dot, but the translation does
 have a dot at the end of the line.
 In the EU it is standard writing rules that you end a line with a dot.
 So if someone adds a dot at the end of the translation, that should not be
 fuzzied.
 If you do not have Glotdict installed, there is no warning that you add or
 leave a dot out of the translation.
 Solutions could be:
 1. When a translator adds a dot while the original does not have it, then
 remove the dot automatically. Also the other way around, if the original
 has a dot, but the translator did not add it, then automatically add the
 dot when saving the translation.
 2. The fuzzy process should not mark this line as "fuzzy", it does no harm
 leaving the dot in, as this normal writing.
 It could also be that the line has been imported, then these corrections
 should also be made.
