Hi Lautenai, thanks for your interest in the task. It seems I arrive quite late to the discussion. I just want to add my comments on the workflow you are proposing. It looks like a computer assisted translation (CAT) tool where the text is segmented and translation is performed unit by unit. In addition in CAT tools you have glossaries, dictionaries, tranlation memory management, segmentation, machine translation and a batery of tools already integrated. My opinion regarding this is that this can be done better done using existing dedicated CAT tools like OmegaT which integrates the above mentioned (including Apertium's translations).
I think it would be much more valuable for the project to focus on the logging system (maybe rebuild it) and find a way it can be further exploited to extract information regarding the changes that users make to Apertium's output in order to detect potential improvements for the engine.
