Background of the issue:
woocommerce-multilingual adds all reviews, even those that are not approved to string translation by default. This means we have 1000s of strings added with "wcml-reviews" textdomain, since we have lots of spam comments (despite recaptcha,...).
Symptoms:
WooCommerce Multilingual adds all reviews, including unapproved ones, to string translation by default, resulting in thousands of strings with the 'wcml-reviews' textdomain due to spam comments.
Questions:
Is there any option to only add reviews to string translation once reviews are approved?

Hi,
before your ticket is assigned to one of my colleagues, please allow me to walk you through some initial debugging steps. This will help speed up the support process.
No, there isn't a specific option to control that. All reviews are automatically added during the string registration process, regardless of their status.

Thanks again for your suggestion. The key question here isn’t whether it’s a good idea, but how many of our clients would benefit from this functionality. At the moment, it seems you're the only one who has brought it up.
Because of that, it’s unlikely to become a priority in the near term. We focus our development efforts on features with broader demand, and unless more users request something similar, it’s unlikely this will be added to the product.
