The manual is using more advanced English than it needs to, which gets in the way of users that don't know English very well — which, considering that the tool's original purpose was to facilitate translation of FTL into Russian, might hurt other fan translation teams too.
The target language level would be the level used in FTL, since the translators would have to handle that much in order to translate the game itself.
I'm putting this here as a backlog item, I have no scheduled plans to do it; to one person that asked so far I confirmed a few details personally, but if there are more of you out there, a clearer manual would help all of us.
