Wow, thanks for the detailed response. Comments inline.

Ok, these are weird. I don't get this. These buttons are explicitly
disabled in Javascript so that they are accessible for non-javascript
users. Can you check they're not an artifact of NoScript?
Note that I have explicitly tried to get external javascripts like
jQuery from CDN's, the idea being that anything hosted that way is
quicker to load. Maybe this is not a good idea?
But there is an issue that you shouldn't be able to restart the
process that way... Actually this turns out not to be quite as simple
as I thought, so I've added it to my list.

That is indeed a change. The idea is that sometimes descriptions are
really long and that it can take a lot of work to translate. This way
you can save partial translation. They then remain in the 'Pending
Translation' list. This seemed friendlier to me, but perhaps it could
be clearer? Do you have suggestions here?

At first I didn't know what you meant, since the HTML is the same as
before. But I see now the model is indeed stricter. I've bumped this
to 160 because as you say, some languages need more space. Perhaps I
should remove the limit altogether and simply trust the translators?

I noticed this and have fixed it (hopefully).

Looking into this it seems the whole messages/comments stuff on the
translate is a little confused. I'll have to think about how to fix
this...

The fuzzy translations are (I hope) the most useful feature, but there
are many others...
Thanks for the feedback,
