Example way to reproduce (but may also be one of the problems under bug 46716): 1) Open Special:LanguageStats 2) Select a page with many outdated messages and go to "Outdated" 3) Confirm all messages till the end of the page Now Special:Translate will slowly apply your changes and switch the icons from "Outdated" to "Translated" (in no particular order). If you exit the page too soon, your changes are lost. Expected: user is given "You have unsaved changes" or similar before abandoning the page if some updates are still in progress.
Maybe this should be generalised to "Special:Translate should complete the 'Saving...'". We have a report from a translator consistently unable to save translations. https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Meta_talk:Babylon&diff=5411601&oldid=5408668
Your last comment doesn't seem to be related to this bug at all. We already have warning for saving translations, not sure about proofreading.
