Instead of finding a language on a long list, it would be helpful to be able to search them. This is particularly useful because there's 2 ways that languages can be sorted, possibly leading to confusion or a hard time finding a target language.
Unfortunately, the 2 letter language codes are usually based off of their native names(endonyms). e.g. "DE" stands for Deutsh, which is German, and "SV" stands for Svenska, which is Swedish.
Currently, languages are sorted by their ISO language name, e.g. "German". But, if someone found a translation coming from "SV", they would have to determine what language that is, and find it in a list which isn't sorted the way they would find it ideally.
Proposal: Make the combo boxes searchable via BOTH native names and language codes.
