That's just pootle/translate being  lame. Any sane translation tool is able
to cope with the simple changes like moved sentences and simple one or two
word edits. And the better ones use things like tokenizers (lucene) and
sentence level segmentation to get things right even on bigger changes. But
I agree that until someone puts some effort into pootle in this regard,
it's better not to attempt it.
