Improvements
Some improvements I thought of whilst using the new editor:


 * 1) Add some documentation to I18n-js to help users access the page and use it.
 * 2) Add breadcrumbs to improve navigation between stages.
 * 3) Special:BlankPage/i18nedit:
 * 4) Remove the legend tag - or make it useful for something. At the moment it appears to do nothing.
 * 5) Add some padding between the search box and submit button.
 * 6) Change the submit button text to something else. At the moment it implies that multiple results could be returned when that isn't the case. Perhaps "Submit" would be a better choice?
 * 7) Special:Blankpage/i18nedit/SCRIPT:
 * 8) Remove/hide the bullet points - the radio buttons serve the same function.
 * 9) Split the list of languages into multiple columns.
 * 10) Add buttons to the top and bottom of the list, same as ?action=history does. I wasn't really sure what to do after selecting a language at first as they're so far down the page in some cases.
 * 11) What should the highlighting referenced in the page be doing? I can't see it used anywhere.
 * 12) Special:Blankpage/i18nedit/SCRIPT/LANG:
 * 13) Add a cancel button.
 * 14) Maybe add a supports wikitext column to be managed by the metadata.
 * 15) Special:Blankpage/i18nedit/SCRIPT/metadata:
 * 16) Again, a cancel button would be good.
 * 17) Make it more flexible to allow it to be extended in the future (such as marking which messages support wikitext).
 * 18) Add some padding between the dropdown and the submit button.
 * 19) Add some kind of feedback so users can tell which messages are already marked as non-translateable.

This is more a TODO list so I don't forget potential features, so feel free to extend it if necessary. I'll try to action some of the above when I can unless objects are raised.
