Please do not anything about this. Fuzzy strings are useful as they are.
Fuzzy strings are _non_ translated. So fuzzy strings do not affect users
_at all_. They are meant as an aid for translators, since if authors
correct a typo in source files (like a missig comma) it does invalidate
the string (correctly) but without wasting the still correct translation.
Unfuzzy a string is way easier than rewrite it from scratch and deleting
a wrong "guessed" translation is usually just a keypress away...
