I have 200 msgs. I perform a search or filter with e* and get just 20. Then I 
begin editing those one by one, and I work just on the filtered 20... Do I 
understand correctly?

The need to save each message before you switch language or go to the next 
message is boring. How about...

Save this and go to: english SPANISH french

Save this and go: << (back) (forward) >>

You would also need a Cancel button, which would restore the unedited msg in 
case you have doubts about the translation you have typed...

Just personal thoughts...

seldom, but in those few occasions it has been useful for me.
