Comment (by Marc4):

 > I do not think this is an improvement. If you select all records before
 starting the editor, then you do not have the need for an extra checkbox.

 I assume navigation exists because it is useful for navigating between
 individual strings. I use it. Not always, but I use it very often. So
 having the checkbox there seems useful to me, because otherwise it forces
 me to go out to the overview just to select the checkbox.

 > Besides that if you go into the editor, and change the record, because
 that is the reason for opening it, you will save or start a discussion.
 Then it is also a duplicate action

 The editor can be entered without having to change a record. If you review
 translations from the individual string navigation instead of checking the
 boxes from the overview.

 It's not the most annoying thing in the world, but it's definitely not
 optimal. And it seems logical to me if cross-string navigation exists.

 If navigation between individual strings didn't exist I wouldn't raise it.
 But if we have that option, from my point of view, it seems logical to
 also have the checkbox inside the editor.
