Comment (by yoavf):

 fuzzy_similar_translation.diff uses a levenshtein based comparison to go
 over new originals and compare them with previously existing originals. If
 a string is 85% similar to a previous string (now missing), replace it
 instead and mark existing translations as fuzzy.

 TODO: use php's similar_text() for strings longer than 255 chars
 (levensthein's practical limt).

 Comments welcome :)
