    I know this sounds more like an external add in, but since this will most likely have a major impact on the industry (such as Google Translate few years ago) I think it makes sense to have IBM Watson LT as one of the translation providers.

    It would be great to have in Studio the possibility of setting some parameter for adding new terms. I know you can chose input models, but often you need to put other information that you just need for one (bigger) project, for instance the name of a...
