It is much more compact and comfortable now for translation, and it looks also better organised from the information POV. The drawback is some lost of symmetry between controls and some ugliness, but we can live with that. I also like the new icons. Warning: The option "Use jack transport" can be enabled even when you are not running JACK. This causes high CPU load and inestability. > Note that there are quite a few translation string changes in there.

About the IntervalDialog: There are some strings missing the i18n() to be translatable. Even with that, the building way for the interval names makes it untranslatable. An example: English interval name: "up 1 octave and a perfect fourth" Spanish translation: "1 octava y una cuarta perfecta ascendente" Not all languages accept the same order of words for the same sentence, and certain order that may be acceptable for some languages may be fully wrong for others. For instance, in spanish we say "fourth perfect" instead of "perfect fourth", or "third minor" instead of "minor third": the adjective and the noun in reverse order. This dialog still requires some more work. We aren't yet ready to freeze strings.
