I have been thinking about this and have a better idea. This is something which has been a real headache regarding this software since before we forked. Part of the problem is user confusion and the fact that the interface is not entirely clear as to what it is doing. What about moving "Print" and "Email" to checkboxes which could be done along side post or update operations? This wouldn't require new strings or anything, and it might make the UI a lot clearer and more intelligible. Plus when I click "update" I might not be expecting it to save.... If I click "Print" that's a different thing. What do people think?
