I was about to install this module, then realised that I need to patch the core.
There don't seem to be any patches for 5.3, so I would like to make a request for them.

Thanks

Hi.

The patches are ready.
I'm testing them now.

I have added also some new features and optimizations to Localizer :

- menu translation algorithm should be more efficient and quick
The code has been optimized and some caching has been added
to reduce the necessary database queries

- it is possible to translate a menu item associated with a node
directly in the node's translation form

- when creating new nodes Localizer can add the language prefix to the path
so, if you have created a node with the path 'home', when you translate it
Localizer, propose it/home, fr/home, es/home (and so on) as path

- the switching language url has been made more user friendly :
switchuilocale has become language :
for example : language/it?destination=admin
If "Switch by node path" option is enabled, the switching url, if possible,
becomes simple the url of the called node :
for example : if you are on 'home' path, the switching url for Italian translation
will be the path of that node :
no more: switchuiloacle/it?destination=it/home
but : it/home

- when "Switch by hostname is active" and a node with a language
different from that of the hostname, the correct node is instead presented

I'm testing all these features now.
I am planning to release a new version in the upcoming days.

The next "big" feature will be translating roles and access control
to various Localizer features depending on these roles :
for example : Italian translator will be able to create only Italian translations.

Likewise, waiting for the 5.3 patch. Menu-Items don't seem to translate
with the 5.2 patch on Drupal 5.3. Thanks for your contribution
