Background of the issue:
I am working on a site under development and trying to use the new advanced editor in WPML.

Symptoms:
1) The new advanced editor is extremely not user-friendly.

2) The sticky header takes all the space on the screen, and is annoying.

3) When you click on a string, the other string where we were isn't collapsing automatically.

4) The button to validate the translation of a string is called "Economiser", why??? who made this translation, it's absolutely not the correct word. It should be called something like "Confirmer" or "Valider"

5) When you valide the translation of a string, instead of opening the next string, you should open the next UNTRANSLATED string.

6) If you really want to make a NEW advanced editor, then make it really better by allowing us to bulk select many strings to validate the translations as a copy of the original language in BULK !
