What It Doesn't Do
- Allow editing of "main language" not there
- No merge "main language" strings to translated languages (same goes for delete)
- No dirty flags when main language string changes
What I Don't Like
- It hosts itself with its own Web server
- Rather old unmaintained dependencies
- No Web Service interface that we could program against
