About the delay, I'm asking our infra team to have a look. Although for 
me Weblate is sometimes slow, I've never had such a long wait compared 
to your sting [2]. Does anybody else have such long delay in displaying 
automatic suggestions?

I don't experience the same, but it seems Olivier has the same feedback. 
I'll also ask infra team to have a look.

On adding other sources of suggestions, I'll add the topic to our team 
meeting tomorrow to discuss the possibilities.
