Make SDLXLIFF Toolkit separate application again

PLEASE make the SDLXLIFF Tookit a separate application again.

The way it's "integrated" in Studio 2017 is really extremely terrible to use. In fact it's pretty useless :(

  • Why screenshots?! Don't you see the problem? It's "integrated" in the naaaaarow information pane with the analysis stats, confirmation stats, etc.... i.e. its GUI cannot be reasonably used.

    Yes, I know I can undock the pane, but I DON' WANT to undock the ENTIRE PANE (i.e. including all other tabs) just because someone had a bright idea to integrate big GUI window into this narow pane... I want to use ONLY THE TOOLKIT in a normal window. And NO, I don't want to close the other tabs of the pane to make it "look like a normal window"...

    Try to load ~100 files in it and then use it in the naaaarow pane... :(

    Can you list the reasons why exactly do you believe the integration makes it any better than before (i.e. separate application) and the exact usability and UX advantages it brings?

    The good old "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" proverb is still valid. And there was aboslutely nothing wrong with the toolkit... until you guys "fixed" it. I wish you invested the effort into fixing some real bugs instead.
