Yeah, that's why I am starting this translation process now, rather than waiting until the full text is in the template.pot. Please report these issues so I can fix them. Its not hard to make the panel adjust width, though oftentimes the panels end up getting quite wide in some languages.

I've tried to standardize the punctuation but haven't messed with the language too much because its been around so long. I think you are talking about the iemguis (hslider, vslider, etc.) or do you also mean the gatoms (number box , symbol box) and arrays.
Mainly talking about the iemguis, yes. I could imagine taking away the "-----dimensions(pix)..." headings and having boxes instead.
When it comes to labels getting cropped, i've so far only seen it happen to the "Messages" labels in the iemguis, and now I see it happen to the english translation as well. Maybe it would be and idea to lose the "symbol" part of eg "Send symbol" and have a heading like "Message symbols", besides of course to make them take up the whole width.
And here I had a long rant about having checkboxes instead of buttons for Init/no init until I viewed source and saw that it was already planned...
