This is controlled by the templates in portal/template/admin

Yes, feel free to provide patches. ;]

Oh, you are right here.

I think a timestamp is needed in the table containing texts and a trigger to 
change that on update. Then it'll be possible to check whether the master was 
modified after the translation and mark this fact.

Deleted comments are, um, deleted.
Rejected are marked but kept in the DB, they are obviously not shown on the site.

If you feel that it's not needed, I'll leave only the 'delete' option.

I didn't see anything for editing the comments in the current site's code, BTW.

Manually, by adding the language to the array[s] in 
portal/system/global/languages.php

That's once again a content issue. ;]
