With the new translate popup, you have to acknowledge it before you can continue typing. This means always having to press escape or cancel randomly when browsing the majority of webpages you visit.
Worse, the popup only shows after the page is fully loaded, so if you are browsing a page that is slow to load for whatever reason, you're sure to get interrupted in the middle of whatever you are doing, and if you were typing something, you aren't anymore because you just lost focus.
Now imagine this behavior on nearly every webpage.
My options are to disable the translate feature, which I use quite a bit, or to just put up with a crappy user experience, which is what I've been doing.
If you live in an English speaking country and only visit the occasional foreign website, you're likely never to notice this problem.
