Bug Description
Takes time to properly translate a piece of software. The timeout delay that is currently implemented in Launchpad translate is often too short for people to complete all translations in a given page - there's a plethora of "bugs" related to the issue. It's not convenient to go to the bottom of the page ever so often to press "Save" before the sessions expire - this is not what people should stress for when translating.
So, PLEASE:
- make clear and visible in the page (the top of it) what that delay currently is, so that, at least, we know.
- make that delay longer - there is no security threat if you allow, say, 30 minutes for translation sessions before they expire. That should be enough to deal with a page.
I believe you recorded a lot of automated errors, already, so it's time to change that. Should be simple...
