[Qgis-developer] Table Manager discontinuation and missing French translator

[Bernd Vogelgesang]

Just a note on usability:
Though even the Table Manager was not the obvious tool to manipulate  
attribute tables, cause it wasn't even installed by default, now the  
Refactor Fields function in Processing is even less visible to people.

It would be great if this function could be kind of hard-wired to the  
attribute table with a button (like the field calculator, formatting  
etc.). I think especially ArcMap-users (but not only) will struggle to  
find that function.

Cheers
Bernd
