Help bring the Auto Translate module out of Dev--4--Usability

The Auto Translate Module ( http://drupal.org/project/i18n_auto ) aims to assist with translations on Drupal sites by allowing content creators to press a button which scrapes the text area of a node, queries a third party translation service, and pastes the resulting translation which can then be edited and posted as a translation. When this module is complete it will greatly reduce the amount of time needed to translate a site, making it much easier to maintain multi-lingual content-heavy Drupal sites. However, the module is still in a development release, and needs a few significant improvements to bring it to the level of a full release.

To complete this task the student must complete the following:

1) Examine the current User Interface (UI) of the Location Buttonsets attached below each text area.
2) Propose at least one alternative UI and/or workflow for the Auto Translate module and create an illustration, diagram, and/or screenshot of the proposal.
3) Implement the changes required for an alternative UI and/or workflow, and submit as a patch for review.
4) Find at least 3 volunteers, at least one of whom is not familiar with Drupal, that you are able to observe while using the computer. Have each of them use both the unpatched and modified Auto Translate module, by translating content in a text area. Interview the volunteers, asking their impressions of both UI's. Submit a report of your findings.

Deliverables:
This task will be considered complete when a single document against the 5.x-1.x-dev version of the module is submitted and has been marked as RTBC.
