If you have only 2 translators, then it may not be a problem, it gets

module once, and then it belongs to you until the translation is
finished, or you [Release] it. We believed this mechanism to be
extremely helpful.
On the other hand it is just annoying if there is only one or
two
translators or if you want to commit a one-liner fix to a module "owned"
by someone else.
Having the mechanism available is definitely useful but maybe it
would be easier for everybody not to enforce it for CVS access.
