When creating new messages in I18nEdit, I have found it frustrating that you can't edit the message ID without reloading the page (and losing everything you've just added) or going through the JSON editor and triggering the abuse filter. It would be helpful if you could edit the IDs of new messages before you save them.

I think the script also needs to clearly state which characters are illegal when it throws an error. If you copy messages that you don't realize have HTML in them, the script strips the HTML from the message. This feature is absolutely necessary to prevent XSS attacks, and the resulting error from the script says there is an "invalid character." However, the invalid character shown is blank, so it seems as if some sort of blank character is hidden somewhere in your messages, when in fact you just need to take out the HTML.
