Comment:

 Adding a wildcard here isn't out of the question, but it's not super
 performant.

 Due to the number of strings in the DB adding a suffix wildcard (ie.
 `Drop-in%`) is about 10x slower, and while it works, it's not going to
 scale.
 We'd have to limit it to logged in users only, and probably best even only
 to those who have some form of higher permissions than a translation
 contributor (which shouldn't be a problem).

 (partial PR incoming)
