Hi,
You can add your own Translation Memory (TM) to the Translator Kit, but 
the number of Kb's is limited.
And yes, the translation is pretty poor. It is only usable for common 
phrases and words.
This means that, like you said, it is better to use Redmar's script to 
sort on popularity and then translate offline.
