Great. I'm going to start the Swedish translation soon. Please note that 
there will be a few more new/changed strings which land at doc string 
freeze on March 16.

Well, there was a tiny change of that string, which explains it. The 
translation was not dropped arbitrarily.

Since the strings are not identical, I'm not sure I understand how 
merging would help.

If you download the zesty PO file, you see a lot of fuzzy translations 
at the bottom of the file - including the string which starts with "A 
small web user interface".

Unfortunately the fuzzy translations are not shown in the LP web interface.
