Description

### Describe the issue

I have been told that i have rights to proofread/review at `https://hosted.weblate.org/translate/projectname/`. And i can see a translation suggestion, and various buttons, incl. "Accept" button (tickmark)
When i click Accept one, i am redirected to a next string, assuming that the previous string is approved/fully accepted. But that does not seem true, because when i go back to that string, the three radio buttons under it shows highlighted button "Waiting for review", not "Approved", which i would expect to be active.

If i am a reviewer and accept something, then it should be marked as reviewed.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the suggestion-review flow on the hosted Weblate service using the reported version, with reviewer rights enabled. Check whether clicking “Accept” on another user's suggestion changes its status to “Approved” rather than “Waiting for review,” and verify that the next-string redirect still works.
