I think that only changes for bug fixes or adding new strings is allowed.

Fixing typo in source causes fixing string only for English while it 
breaks translation for all other languages.

I have already suggested some time ago that typos in English could be 
fixed by providing translation for American English (en_US). They can 
already be fixed for other English variants (for example en_GB).
