Comment (by alvarogois):

 I'm not sure if this should be a comment or a new ticket, though it's
 related to this flow, so… my idea is this: some variants are very close to
 the default language, only some of the strings actually differ, at least
 in Portuguese (Portugal). I’m thinking of the formal vs. informal but also
 the orthographic differences like (our own pre and post Orthographic
 Reform). There should be a way, in GlotPress, to link variants to the
 default translation. This would allow to have only one translation flow,
 and changes to be simultaneous in all variants.

 Now we have different flows, which makes it inefficient. My idea was, if
 possible, to actually have a [https://cloudup.com/cGh5mxRB_0o “side-by-
 side”] approach.

 Since the way WordPress manages locales and language files seems to be
 changing fast, who knows if we can take the opportunity to go even
 further.
