In the last couple of weeks, Pontoon has got a handful of new features:
- Drag area has been extended to the full width of the header (but only a couple of upper pixels are draggable).
- Keyboard shortcuts enable in-place translations without using a mouse. Click Enter to confirm translation, Esc to cancel and Tab to confirm + go to next entity.
- Suggestions from other users and locales have been fully implemented.
- Design of buttons has changed to become less eye-catching.
- Warning has been added if user doesn’t have JavaScript enabled.
Pontoon UI has now been pretty much finalized, with only a couple of items remaining to be implemented. Main development momentum will now continue on the back-end.

Why are you using country flags to denote languages? A nice read on the topic: http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/flags.html

Julen, I know that flags are representing countries, not languages, but they do “catch the eye better than text does”.
However, I’m also considering removing them from the UI.
