I read (at least) the BzrExplorer page and see "BzrExplorer puts the focus on managing 
branches and changes, rather than directories and files", so I suppose my requests were a 
bit foolish. :-P

I will as I can. Alas, I haven't managed to get time to learn Python yet, so I can't help 
much with code.
I will at least try and use Explorer to do my bzr work, to test it more.

I know what is coding on scarce free time! You did a very good job.

OK

Now, that's interesting! I can work on a French translation, at least...
I see a i18n.py file, but where are the strings to translate? (searching a big file) 
explorer_rc.py is promising but a bit cryptic! ;-)
Ah, ui_explorer.py perhaps? Is it based on gettext GNU tool? What about translating QBzr 
windows?

Not too sure yet how to use them...

Last suggestion: offer to open the README.txt upon completion of the installation (like it 
is traditionally done). There are some interesting information there. Like the minimal 
versions needed... Although it works quite well with my old 1.13 / 0.9.8 (QBzr) install.

I have other remarks / suggestions but I am not sure if they are necessary / useful at 
this state of development.

Thanks for this nice tool.
