Bug Description
Rosetta is still giving karma to people that translated imported translations instead of doing it only when they use Rosetta to do translations. Because of this, Dapper imports are increasing a lot of people's karma -- even for people that don't even have an active Launchpad account.
Clarifying, there are 4 ways that new translations are added to Rosetta:
1. end-user translates using the web application
2. end-user downloads pofile, translates and uploads
3. maintainer uploads tarball with template and translations
4. buildd assembly generates a tarball with template and translations
Only 1 and 2 (which require the end-user has a valid Launchpad account) should assign Karma.

It might be worth finally fixing the database permissions of the poimport database user, minimizing the rights it gets in the database. In particular, if the poimport user doesn't have rights to insert kara exceptions will be raised whenever it attempts to do so making it obvious where the error is.
