The thought here was a multisession CD.  You would be putting more than 1 
backup on the CD, so you would only want to erase when creating the 1st 
session.  Probably could be made clearer in some way.

I'm not seeing the "Are you sure" text.  Translation issue?
In English, it's "Please check if...", written by the previous author.
I agree it could be more succinct.  I've hesitated to change text as it 
pushes more work to the translators, who generally get upset when we start 
changing things late in the game.  I'll drop the "Please check"

Not currentl - good idea though.

Still under development.  It doesn't work yet, but I was trying to get 
the text in (see translator comment above).

MUG changes applied.  Working on other UI issues.
