Kovid's solution is working for me now. I have modified the FM plugin and tested it between two languages and so far it is working without problems. It just needs more testing to make sure everything is OK. Here is link for the updated version if you or anyone else is interested in testing it out.

I am not sure this needs to be done, given how rare this is going to be. I think it easier to tell people who might have this problem to just delete the entries and re-add them while using the updated version. That is what I am going to do in my plugin.
